Question

Answer
It is not permissible to play with fireworks as it is futile activity and wastage of money. Furthermore, it is an action that resembles other religious groups which is prohibited. Rasulullah () said "whoever imitates a nation is from amongst them".

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.
