Question:
Q1-IS IT PERMISSIBLE TO VIEW THE ISLAMIC MOVIE THE MESSAGE?
Answer:
The Prophet (S.A.W.) has cursed and declared keeping and creating portraits and animated images as Haraam. A so-called Islamic movie might not contain music, etc but undoubtedly it portrays animated images which are unlawful, therefore it will be unlawful to view such movies.
