The Details of the Question
Are we regarded to have committed sins when we watch them? Submitted by on Thu, 31/03/2016 - 00:52
The Answer
Dear Brother / Sister,
If the shorts that footballers wear cover the knees, it is not a sin to watch them since the shorts cover the parts that are necessary to be covered. If the shorts are too short to cover the knees, it is not permissible to watch them since they do not cover the parts that are necessary to be covered.
However, to watch them on TV is not regarded as real image; so, it is not haram to watch it unless it causes mischief and unless one looks at it with lust.
