The Ruling on Writing Novels and Suspense Stories

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Your Excellency the Shaykh, he says: I love writing novels and suspense stories. Is this work permissible? He says: I love writing novels and suspense stories.

Answer:
No, do not write lies, and do not utter them. Rather, mention something that is real and beneficial for people, and there is no harm in that. As for trivial matters and distracting things that have no benefit, do not narrate them or write them.
