Pretending to be a shaytaan in a play
Q: In our school, two people had done a play in a program in which one becomes the devil and he tries to whisper evil thoughts into the other person. And the other person reads ta'wuz to ward the devil off. And he doesn't listen to the devil.
Was it sinful? It was done with intention of dawah.
Making zikr while playing games
Q:
1. Is it permissible to play Roblox while doing dhikr in one's mind to avoid wasting time? Though at times one may forget to do so. Some aspects of the game include:
• Free mixing. Avoidable, though a non mahram may approach.
• Clothing (for the characters) that are inappropriate in front of non mahrams. Avoidable.
• Players using heads and faces (can lead to exposing images of animate beings from one's device.)
• Games that include impermissible aspects. Avoidable.
So, the Haram aspects can be avoided In shaa Allah, but other players can engage in it.
Also, the game consists of a variety of other games (exploration games, designing outfits, maybe riddles or the like etc.).
2. Is it permissible to replace the head using some other object like a watch, flower, planets etc. as long as it doesn't have a face or isn't the head of an animal or person?
3. If a non mahram approaches me and I leave the game soon/quickly afterwards without saying anything, is it permissible?

Making wrestling into a sport

Playing games like Brawl Stars, Fortnite, and Roblox
Q: Are games like Brawl Stars, Fortnite, and Roblox haraam?
I believe so because there's music in them and 3d images/sculptures of living beings which is haraam. Even if we're not the ones making them, we can change them and when we play them, we give money and popularity to them which is haraam because we should be spreading good, not publicizing haraam in a good way.
