Watching satellite channels includes both good and evil, and the evil in them is predominant. When this is the case, the Shari'ah tends to favor prohibition over permissibility, just as Allah Almighty forbade alcohol and gambling, even though they contain benefits, because their sin is greater than their benefit.
Therefore, the necessitates prohibiting the watching of these channels to block the means (sadd al-dhari'ah) and protect religion, unless the viewer is capable of refuting deviant ideas, while also being obligated to refrain from watching when there are indecent or tempting scenes.
