Buying Fireworks for Children to Train Them in the Open
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
He says: Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success. If a father buys fireworks for his sons on the condition that they do not use them except in the open, and his purpose is to teach them what resembles modern weapons, is this permissible? Because the harm is absent here?
Answer:
Teaching weapons is not just throwing them around? They enter schools, military schools. Throwing them around has no benefit and no education in it. And their going out to the desert is more dangerous than staying in the town, because they will cause corruption or be exposed to corruption; you are exposing them to open sinners. In any case, this is not permissible. Spending this money on throwing things around is not permissible, and this is foolishness. Yes.
