Regarding Films
Answer:
quote:
It is impermissible to sell or to purchase films containing pictures of creatures that have souls, as there is a lot of Shar`y (Islamic legal) texts that prohibits making, selling and supporting pictures. They become more prohibited if they lead to spreading Zina and sins, arousing interest in them by revealing the `Awrah (private parts of the body that must be covered in public), kissing, Tabarruj (woman's public display of her charms or adornment) and unveiling the face, mixing between the two sexes, or sodomy.

The Ruling on Looking at Women in Films
quote:
It is not permissible to look at pictures of unrelated naked women, nor is it permissible to buy films or magazines in which are such pictures. Indeed, they must be burnt so that evil is not spread, and adultery and fornication do not become prevalent due to the existence of its causes.

Question:
quote:
Some young men plan to produce CDs that include parables of the Qur'an, but they intend to use moving pictures as an alternative for Muslim children who are attracted by such media which exposes them to the negative effects of television and other means of false amusement. They hope to teach children the rulings of their Deen (Islam) in a simplified manner. ...

Answer:
quote:
A: This type of portrayal is impermissible for two reasons:
