Can muslims play video games?

I want to know if it is ok for muslims to play video games.

I play video games but I don't let video games get in the way of me doing important things like prayer.

I just want to know if it is ok for me to play video games.

myself, I wouldn't recommend, bc playing games leaves u behind the real world, and it's a loss of time. Time is very important in muslim's life. So we should avoid things which don't we don't get profit , but I think we could play games like "swimming, football".... which are good for health.

PS: THIS IS ONLY MY OPINION

as long as it doesn't keep you from doing your fard and not endangering your health and studies. then it would be fine, but a waste of time.

Insha Allah see this thread.
