Reading Comic Books that Have Drawn Cartoon Characters
Fatwa No: 450568

Question

Salaam,Are adults allowed to read online comic books provided the contents are okay - the comic books have drawn cartoon characters. JazakAllahKhair

Answer

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

There is no harm in reading comic books as long as they are free from Islamic prohibitions.

The mere presence of cartoon characters in them does not prevent the permissibility of reading them.

Looking at drawings is not prohibited in principle.

Allah knows best.
