Assalamu Alaikum! Is it halal to use books of (programming books) bible series. (i.e. This publisher publishes a series of books with the title "__ Bible". such as "C# Bible" and "Java Bible".)

All perfect praise be to Allaah, The Lord of the Worlds. I testify that there is none worthy of worship except Allaah, and that Muhammad is His slave and Messenger.

Just writing the name Bible on a book or program and the like does not affect it and this does not prevent Muslims from benefitting from it. Therefore, it is permissible to use the programming books on which that name is written, but one should be careful because the one who wrote that name might have a purpose behind that and it may be that he intends to propagate the Bible or other forged books of non-Muslims.

Therefore, one may erase that name so that a curious person would not be lured by it and believe that what is in that book was written in the Bible, and so, he would glorify it. Of course, the Bible was forged by the Christians and Allaah mentioned in the Quran that it was forged and that it was abrogated.

Allaah Knows best.
