Diving in Islam

3 years ago By user2

Q: Is diving permissible in Islam? If one goes diving with the intention of fulfilling the sunnah of swimming, will this be allowed?

Someone told me that it is impermissible because there is fire under the ocean according to a Hadith. If that is the case then how did the Sahaabah learn how to swim since they did not have swimming pools like how we have today?

Playing Zepeto

Q: There's a game called Zepeto. It is a dress up game in which one's face is cartoonized. I gave this character my name and my face got cartoonized. While playing it, the game got stuck and a Christmas dress was highlighted so I thought that maybe one has to first wear this and then the game would progress so I kept clicking on it then found out it was some error. Is this imitating kuffaar? I had these thoughts in my head that its better not to play this game at all. Does this make one a kaafir?

Bowing down to a statue in a game

Q: I was brought to know that kurdidish union of Islamic scholars has released a fatwa on game pubg by writing that the players have to bow infront of statues to become more powerful. This was an event in pubg in February 2020 and when we knew we have to do this in the game we stopped playing it, including all pakistan and pubg had to remove this event because we didn't like it. So the event of bowing infront of the statue in pubg game was removed. After 5 days, now it is October and no event has come like the statue event but after 5 to 6 months now they are giving a fatwa. I don't understand this? Even call of duty is a game similar to pubg but no one talks about it, so why pubg?
