Can you watch Namaz from Haram online or on TV, and does it matter if it’s live?

Answered as per Hanafi Fiqh by Muftisays.com
are u allowed to watch namaz from haram (intrnet,t.v wotever the means)
does it make a diffrence if it is live or not

Answer
Bismillah

Al-jawab billahi at-taufeeq (the answer with Allah’s guidance)

Islam has prohibited the Muslims from spending their time in unavailing activities. The time spent in watching the Salaahs etc, on Tv or internet could rather be used in acquiring Islamic knowledge or performing various acts of Ibaadah which will benefit a person in this world as well as the Hereafter.

Also, the honour, love and dignity for these sacred venues would gradually leave the hearts of the people (whether it is watched live or not on TV, and the internet).

And Only Allah Ta’ala Knows Best.
