Deliverance from the video device that destroys morals
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
One of the brothers prepared his doctoral thesis on the causes of moral decay by interviewing a group at the juvenile detention center. These were young boys who had committed a heinous act against one of them. He asked them about the reason, and they had no motive for it other than that they had seen what they did in a video. So how can one be delivered from this destructive video that ruins morals?
Answer:
There is no doubt that pornography is a vile habit, and most of its films are wicked films received from licentious countries and from wicked people who call to vice and corruption. It is obligatory to eradicate it as much as possible; this is the obligation regarding it. Yes, the state has warned about this and has established measures and instructions to prevent it, but these matters have leaked through; what prevented it completely?
Eradicating wicked films may not be feasible, because they are exchanged by every means and through expedited methods, and a single film may be copied into many things, spreading its harm. We ask Allah to grant us success in preventing it completely so that this harm does not occur. Yes.
