Answer
If the computer game is educational or imparts some form of skill, it is permissible otherwise not.
Most computer games to our knowledge are but ?games? and a sheer waste of precious time. Hence, not permissible.

Fatawa SA is an independent, read-only index of fatawa already published by Darul Iftaa Mahmudiyyah (AskImam). It is not a fatwa service. For your own situation, ask the issuing Darul Ifta directly.
