Source: FtawySummarized from the full answer at Ftawy · imported Sep 2, 2026
It is permissible to play computer games if they are free of prohibitions, such as not distracting from the remembrance of Allah and prayer, being free of gambling, music, and images of裸 (nude) women, and not leading to enmity. Playing them is not forbidden due to the presence of images of animate beings within them, based on the permissibility of looking at images.
