The question

What is the ruling on the game "CrossFire," which contains semi-naked cartoon female characters, knowing that it is the main game in the internet cafe I own and constitutes most of my profits? And is it permissible for me to apply the rule that "the majority of it is permissible," given that nudity constitutes only a small percentage and does not tempt players? And is the money earned from this game permissible?

The answer

The statement regarding the prohibition of playing games that contain semi-nude cartoon images is not far-fetched, due to the fear of temptation, arousal of instincts, and the reinforcement of forbidden imagery. Therefore, we advise preventing café patrons from playing these games or closing the café, as aiding in sin is forbidden, for Allah says: "And do not cooperate in sin and aggression." Furthermore, the money earned from this is forbidden, because it is in exchange for a forbidden act, "Indeed, when Allah forbids something, He forbids its price." And be assured that whoever abandons something for the sake of Allah, Allah will compensate him with something better.
