Advice for those who follow the matches in Ramadan
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Is there any advice for the young people, including the students of knowledge, who follow the World Cup matches in the last third of the night? In the month of Ramadan, the matches will be at the times of the 'Isha' and tarawih prayers?
Answer:
It is obligatory for Muslims to abandon amusement and play, and to turn to the worship of Allah (Mighty and Majestic). They should not waste their time following matches or other forms of amusement and play, especially in the blessed month of Ramadan. It is obligatory for Muslims in general, and for the young people in particular, because some of them are obsessed with matches and watching matches. There is no benefit in this; rather, there is harm in it, and it is a waste of time. How can a person waste his precious time and the great season, which is Ramadan, by following matches? This is a great loss that cannot be compensated. So they should abandon this and turn to the worship of Allah, especially in the month of Ramadan. They should utilize their noble times in the obedience of Allah, in standing in night prayer, and in tahajjud, which is what He has commanded. This is what will remain for them, and they will find it stored up with Allah (Mighty and Majestic).
