Seriously?

Thank you for five minutes of entertainment, Brother! A much needed one to lighten up a hectic and stressful day.
Anyway, seriously, there is nothing wrong with a bit of entertainment. Watching crickets/movies/entertainment is part of the fine things of life that we get to enjoy. Everything in moderation. As long as you're not stuck for hours and hours (and end up doing nothing in youf life), then it should be okay. The key is not trangressing the limits, and a healthy balance between worldly and afterlife affairs.
Salaam.

If you are fulfilling the criteria in Sura 25 and 231-10 etc. (i.e. the Qur'an) then that is fine. This is another reason why five salaat is recommended (without pushing the actual Qur'anic view!). I mentioned in my article on salaat that we are expected to remember Allah (SWT) standing, sitting and lying, and the proof/effects of this is that we do not neglect the duties of the Qur'an. You do not have to cease remembering Him to enjoy cricket. The same question can be asked about people who have jobs but watch cricket sometimes! Just common sense. As for those who are famous or earn much money, they can use their influence/wealth to support a worthwhile cause.
Peace.

Say "Who has forbidden the nice things that God has brought forth for His servants and the good provisions?" Say "It is for those who believe in this worldly life, and it will be exclusive for them on the day of resurrection" It is such that We explain the revelations for those who know.Today I learned, all the hell verses are about Cricket. Thanks for that.
But using a computer that you access the internet on isn't 'enjoyment' is it? Blatant hypocrisy or just epic trolling. I'm going with the latter, how can you be in position to observe a 'boy watching cricket' if you yourself weren't watching it?
In any case, thanks for the laughs. I really thought we couldn't get any stupider in this world, and I got proven wrong once again.

Basically rahenijaat1's an Indian supporter. I will be burning his effigies while watching the match.

Needed to post again to point out how hilariously stupid this thread is. It wasted more of people's time than any sports match ever did.

Um, good one I guess? For a third time, stupid thread. Waste of bandwidth, just like your sig.

Don't waste your time here.
It's not your type!-----"Do people think that they will be left alone because they say ?We believe, and they will not be tested?? (2902)
-----"And certainly, We have tested those who were before them. Thus Allah will surely make evident those who are truthful, and He will surely make evident (those who are) the liars." (2903)
-----"Or do those who do evil deeds think that they can outrun (escape) Us. Evil is what they judge." (2904).
-----"Whoever hopes to the meeting with Allah. Then indeed, Allah?s term is coming. And He is the All Hearer, the All Knower." (2905)
-----"And thus do We explain in detail the revelations, that the way of the criminals may become clear." (655)

Interesting verses. Irrelevant but interesting nonetheless. I suppose you think pasting those verses somehow makes your thread less stupid? It doesn't. Still stupid. Still a waste of space.
