Islamic games on WhatsApp groups
Question
I have a question regarding my mother’s WhatsApp Islamic group. She spends most of her time on her WhatsApp Islamic group playing games related to Hadith and Quraanic aayaat. One groups name is Quraan Rapid Fire. All are ladies players, but none of them are Aalimaa and scholars. They just search the internet for answers. It seems unpleasant and inappropriate to me and my father. Your suggestion in order to avoid arguments and confusion will be much appreciated.
Answer
This is incorrect, misleading and a recipe for corruption. In place of this, start off taleem. May Allah Ta`ala give the family mahabbat and let them progress in all respects.
And Allah Ta'ala (الله تعالى) knows best.

Fatawa SA is an independent, read-only index of fatawa already published by Mufti Online — Madrasah Ta'leemuddeen. It is not a fatwa service. For your own situation, ask the issuing Darul Ifta directly.
