Answer:

 

Harry potter magic unlawful

In the name of Allah, We praise Him, seek His help and ask for His forgiveness. Whoever Allah guides none can misguide, and whoever He allows to fall astray, none can guide them aright. We bear witness that there is none worthy of worship but Allah Alone, and we bear witness that Muhammad (saws) is His slave-servant and the seal of His Messengers.

 

Shariah does not prohibit believers from healthy and wholesome entertainment. There is a consensus amongst the scholars and jurists in Islam that the learning, promoting, endorsing, etc. of magic, witchcraft, sorcery, etc. is deemed as unlawful.

 

It would be best for one who sincerely fears Allah and the Last Day to avoid indulging themselves and/or their children in such fantasies of magic and sorcery. And Allah Alone Knows Best.

 

Whatever written of Truth and benefit is only due to Allah’s Assistance and Guidance, and whatever of error is of me alone. Allah Alone Knows Best and He is the Only Source of Strength.

 

Your brother and well wisher in Islam,

 

 

Burhan
