The criterion for permitting the game of football.
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner : Do you consider the game of football to be a matter of strength, or is it according to intention?
The Shaykh : Your speech is disjointed. It is a matter of strength, and it is according to intention; it is a matter of strength, and it is according to intention.
The questioner : But the answer before the prayer is that it is conditional. If it is a matter of strength, we would have liked to know if it is a matter of strength?
The Shaykh : Your question, my brother, is now disconnected from the previous question. May Allah guide you.
The questioner : No, my intention was connected to the same question.
The Shaykh : What is your intention and your wording? What is your wording?
The questioner : Clarify it for us. May Allah reward you with good.
The Shaykh : It is not clarified, my brother. You know what clarification is. Say, "following the previous discussion." You say such and such. Otherwise, I have no answer except to what you asked. Playing with the ball is a matter of strength, and the race we referred to, and we expanded the circle regarding the hadith and so on, is not permissible from the perspective of play, but rather from the perspective of [Al-Anfal 8:60]. You have now received the answer to your question.
The questioner : May Allah reward you with good.
The Shaykh : Yes, we learn, if Allah wills.
The questioner: May Allah will it.
The questioner : Our Shaykh, in the matters of Hajj, there are many questions I ask about. The first issue is what relates to...
The Shaykh : All right, throw two birds with one stone. Stay away from the sun and get closer to your companion.
The questioner : May Allah reward you with good, O our Shaykh.
The Shaykh : And you, Abu Zaki, move as well with your brother-in-law. What is the matter?
The Shaykh : Your speech is disjointed. It is a matter of strength, and it is according to intention; it is a matter of strength, and it is according to intention.
