You are the one who can make the TV haraam by watching things you are not supposed to watch

We can use photoshop but we must honest, and inform this is a photoshoped picture.
If we make a photoshoped picture and tell everyone this is a real picture, that is fraud.
In another case, if we take a photo of Mr.X and take another photo as background, then we combine these pictures and tell everyone this a photo of Mr.X when he is in this place, that is 'Fitnah'.
 

TV you can watch lewedness on it
PC you can watch lewedness on it, infact its easier to!

the essencial differnece is that in most peoples homes with a TV you can not chose what to watch- you flick through channels and might accidently see nudity in adverts and all the channels have lots of haram music. promoting kufr.

They have adverts on 4pm in the afternoor or 10 am in the morining with practically naked women in the shower or on the beach advertsing food or sun block!!

what the heck.

with the internet you choose the sites you want to go on to- there is no music unless you go to you tube even then you have to click to hear music.

So pc is the safer option,

you can block adult website and restict what adults ans children can watch.

PC is so much better than TV.

When I read an English magazine, I found an advert of a TV program in UK.

Astaghfirullah aladzim.......I cannot imagine if kids watch this TV program.
 
hmmm and how many Muslim parents let their kids watch t.v every day for hours after school. The conditioning starts from there. It would be great if there was cheap islamic alternatives like cartoon series for children that have an islamic nature and content.
 
The key point is having the taqwa of Allah, fear of Allah.

If you have fear of Allah then you will never go onto pornographic sites.

Especially if you use the internet only infront of the family.

But with the TV even if you watch it infront of the family- the whole family has to be expose to accidental nudity, and all the other forms of evil .

If the parents can sit there and watch it why can't the kids??
 
Asalamalaikum,
In my opinion i think that tv its-self aent haram, itz wat you watch on it that is: if you watch something that is beneficial, well your increasing your knowledge and we are recomended to seek knowledge.
 
There are a hundred thousand times evil in internet than on TV.....only an i.d.i.o.t will say tv is haram. The topic itself is not relevant
 
1678. Ibn `Umar (May Allah be pleased with them) said: The Messenger of Allah (PBUH) said, "Those who draw pictures will be punished on the Day of Resurrection; and it will be said to them: `Breathe soul into what you have created.'''

but what about all those scholars who have videos made of themselves in order to get their message across. Photographs are haraam, but videos is that a different case.?
 
There are many Islamic books, calendars, posters, stickers, greeting cards with cartoon pictures in my place. And ulamas in my place never forbide those stuff.
 
you can say what ever you want...

if only... if only... if only... i can get hold of the remote tv. :cry:
 
Salam,
Somehow without even thinking of it I am getting more and more far away from the tv and honestly it feels good. I can think by myself and not by the advertisings, talk shows and other stuff lol. Since I do not agree with all the weird things Swedish television says it feels better to just skip it. If I want to see a movie I can do it, if I want to see videos I have YouTube to choose from. I love to be able to CHOOSE what I want and don't want to see. Because even on the normal news on tv they can show things I rather had not seen. But still, I don't believe tv in itself is haram, it depends on what you make out from it.
 
What i said was about if you drew portraits, not about videos coz i dont really know the answer to that.

may allah incease our knowledge..amiin
