Is it permissible to portray the role of infidels in TV series?

Acting is permissible if it serves a legitimate Islamic interest and is free from prohibitions, such as uttering what is not allowed, performing what is not allowed, like prostrating to idols, or engaging in forbidden mixing [between genders]. So, if acting as a disbeliever or anyone else serves a legitimate Islamic interest, such as education, and is free from these prohibitions, then there is no harm in it. The preponderant opinion is that acting is generally permissible, provided that the [Islamic] regulations are observed.
