What is the ruling on introducing satellite dishes into homes, and what should children do if their parents insist on their presence, and is it permissible to break them?
The legal ruling regarding satellite dishes depends on how they are used. If the use is bad, the family should be advised and reminded of the danger of misusing satellite dishes and the cultural invasion they cause. An alternative should be found in Islamic programs. Actions that cause greater harm, such as breaking the satellite dish, must be avoided, because if forbidding an evil leads to a greater evil, then it becomes forbidden.
