Playing badminton is permissible if free of religious violations
Fatwa No: 233431

Question

Is playing badminton haram?

Answer

All perfect praise be to Allaah, The Lord of the Worlds. I testify that there is none worthy of worship except Allaah, and that Muhammad is His Slave and Messenger.

In general, sports are permissible if they abide by Islamic  guidelines and do not involve any religious violations as we have previously clarified in Fatwa 83673.

Allaah Knows best.
