Surah Al-Jumuah #30 Is Entertainment Wrong in Islam

Nouman Ali Khan

NOTE

The Balance Between Entertainment and Obligations in Islam

Islam emphasizes maintaining a balance between entertainment and obligations. Allah has set obligations in prayers and prohibited certain actions, foods, and ways of earning money. While entertainment is allowed, it should not distract from the mandatory remembrance of Allah or neglecting responsibilities towards family and personal well-being. Engaging in entertainment or work excessively can lead to neglecting remembrance of Allah and family obligations. It is crucial to understand the fine line between necessary distractions and harmful addictions, as they can overpower one's connection to Allah and lead to neglecting responsibilities. Hence, it is essential to strike a balance between entertainment, work, and obligations to uphold one's relationship with Allah and fulfill familial and personal duties.
