❀ Viewing Images of Women in Magazines and Films ❀

❖ Question:

Is it permissible to view nude images of women in magazines or films?

❖ Answer:

It is not permissible to view the nude image of any non-mahram woman. It is also prohibited to purchase magazines, journals, or films that contain such images. In fact, it is obligatory to destroy such materials—even by burning them—so that immorality and indecency do not spread due to the presence of their means.

[Shaykh Ibn Jibreen رحمه الله]
