Selling computer games
Fatwa No: 81719

Question

Is it Halal to sell computer games?

Answer

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

If these games are free from any prohibition, like pictures of women displaying their charms, music etc…, then there is no harm in buying and selling such games, Allah willing.

However, the person who uses these games must fear Allah about his time and not waste it in what is not beneficial.

It is confirmed that the Prophet said: “A servant of Allah will remain standing on the Day of Judgment till he is questioned about his age, how he spent it …

Allah knows best.
