Watching Documentary on TV or Mobile before Sleeping

Question

Assalaamualaikum
Is television haram or does it depend on what we watch ? Can I watch a documentary on tv or mobile before sleeping after having read all my duahs and surahs ? JazaakAllah for your answer.

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  sallallaahu  `alayhi  wa  sallam ( may  Allaah exalt his mention ) is His slave and Messenger.

There is no harm in watching on television what does not include what is forbidden or listening to it, such as documentary programs and the like, whether the watching is before bedtime or at any other time.

Allah Knows best.
