The question

Is a person who plays war games in which the dead are revived with a defibrillator considered an unbeliever, even if the player himself does not use this feature, but rejoices when others use it on him? And is the game itself an act of disbelief because it contains no songs?

The answer

It has been previously clarified that games containing Sharia violations are forbidden. These games, despite their impermissibility, if played merely for entertainment while believing in their invalidity, do not render their player an infidel. This is because believing in their invalidity signifies the heart's rejection of them, and this rejection indicates the preservation of the foundation of faith.
