Do you have an addicted game?

[Sawdah]

I was just wondering, because I sometimes get too addicted to a game of tetris on my phone. :><:

Are any of you addicted to a game or was once addicted to one? Rather it's on your mobile phone, on the computer, or on your ipod/itouch? or even a video game?

[Sawdah]

Wow, lol so many of you are really into Farmville ;D

Inshallah, Let us not play too many games, or we'll end up dedicating a good amount of our time to it.:hmm:

Sports is a good way of keeping your body in shape. I don't think it's wrong to play sports, as longs as you don't play something violent.

Ruling on Playing Dangerous Sports
What is the ruling on doing dangerous sports, such as walking across tightropes in high places, jumping down from high places and staying in a cage with snakes?


Praise be to Allaah.

Just as Islam has commanded the Muslim to take care of his physical wellbeing, so too it forbids him to do any kind of harm to his body. The Prophet (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) said: “There should be no harming or reciprocating harm.” (Narrated by Ibn Maajah, Kitaab al-Ahkaam, 2332; Ahmad, 2719; Maalik, 1234).

The scholars have discussed the matter of doing dangerous sports.

The author of al-Durr al-Mukhtaar said: “According to the Hanafi fiqh, ‘… all kinds of dangerous sports are permitted to the one who is skilled and is most likely to be safe from harm, such as archery/shooting, or hunting snakes. Watching these sports is permitted in such cases.’” (See al-Durr al-Mukhtaar, 6/404)

The first condition:

Complete skill and proficiency in these kinds of sports. That cannot be achieved without a lot of repeated practice and training, until that level of proficiency is achieved. If this training results in neglecting obligatory duties or ignoring Sunnah or recommended actions, then the view that it is haraam is applicable in this case. But if no such neglect results from this practice and training, then the view that it is permitted is applicable, and it is also permitted to watch.

The second condition:

That it is most likely that the person will be safe. If there is the slightest possibility that he will not be safe, or there is doubt that he will be safe, then the sport is haraam, because it may lead to his death. We are forbidden to reach towards such things, because Allaah says (interpretation of the meaning):

“…and do not throw yourselves into destruction…”

[al-Baqarah 2:195]

The third condition.

The sport should not be done for money. It is haraam to take payment for such sports, because this is regarded as consuming people’s wealth unlawfully, as there is no benefit in it.

See Bughiyat al-Mushtaaq fi Hukm al-Lahw wa’l-La’b wa’l-Sibaaq, p. 156-157.

I say: these things should be limited to special occasions and celebrations, provided that they comply with the conditions mentioned above. The soundness of this opinion is based on the reports about the Ethiopians playing in the mosque, so these matters should be restricted to the days of Eid. By analogy they may also be done on other special occasions and celebrations. Similarly, such sports are regarded as permissible on the condition that there is no mixing of men and women, and that the ‘awrahs of the players are not visible, and that no games of magic are involved.



See Qadaayaa al-Lahw wa’l-Tarfeeh, p. 295

I hope that helps inshallah :)

Yeah, I know what you mean. But, I only play my tetris game while I'm waiting in the bus for my destination or when I honestly do not have anything to do (though that rarely happens, I always have something to do). I don't exactly make time for playing video games... at least, not anymore.:X :/

[Hayaa]

Freedom Fighters and I'm Going In at first but now.. Halo and COD4 (multiplayer). :wub: :exhausted

['Abdul Rahmaan]

I'm addicted to an Islamic board game. :)

[Fטлку]

^ For a second there I thought this place had an arcade imsad

[Salahudeen]

not anymore since my pc became to old to run the latest games, but i always used to spend weeks in my bedroom playing AA, football manager, CS, GTA Vice city online, in college we used to play funky snooker everyday lol.

we used to have our own class tournaments and draw names out a bag to see who played who LOL.

I made it to semi final :) evventually the teacher blocked it though after much threatening to do so.

[cat eyes]

[Cabdullahi]

You wont be reciting the kalma continuously for 24 hours a day...leisure time is needed and playing a video game after you have done your 3ibadah is fine and healthy.

[glo]

It may be a little silly, but I am completely hooked on Bejeweled Blitz on FB :embarrass

... I'm also pretty good at it! :D

What sort of Pc do you have...?

[Hayaa]

There's this game called 'Fall Down' that you can download on an iphone.. it's really fun x_x

[Salahudeen]

What sort of Pc do you have...?

a very old 1, bought it in 2003, 64 MB gfx card lol. amd athlon 2600tm 2.13 ghz processor, 2 gb ram. broken dvd drive. 160 gb hard drive.

I'm 1 of those people who finds it hard to replace something unless it's broken and I'm like that with everything, even clothes unless they're ripped I keep them lol I don't care if they're out of fashion :shade:

this pc I'm going to keep still even when I get a new one cos it's been with me since 2003 if feels connected to me now, if you told me to trade it for a modern 1 I wouldn't be able to do it cos I've grown attached to it now :hmm:

[Asiyah3]

I liked Crash bandicoot though now the CD stops after you reach a certain level :( Before I used to play the same levels, but now I'm sick of winning the same over and over again.

Yeah I remember street of rage that was an awesome game to play. N64 yeah golden was the best on N64, but never liked the control for the N64 didn't feel comfortable. When PS1 came out it was all about Tekken i never got bored of that game. I never understood final fantasy though.
