Have Fun within Limits

Islam isn’t about being serious all the time and not having fun with your loved ones. On the contrary, even prophet Muhammad (saw) used to play and race with his wife Aisha (radiAllahu anha). The secret to having fun and enjoying your time in this Dunya is to do it within the limits of the Qur’an and Sunnah. So, have fun but don’t do that if it violates any rules.
Some types of fun and entertainment you could engage in are:

• Socializing: Spending time with your family, friends of the same gender, children, spouse, etc.
• Eating out: Go out to restaurants and enjoy your favorite food with your favorite company. It’s also very fun to try new kinds of food, as long as it’s halal!

• Reading: There’s nothing more relaxing than grabbing a book and enjoying where it takes your mind to.
• Going out: Go out and enjoy nature. Go hiking, cycling, traveling, exploring, or just resting beneath the shades of a tree. It’s very mind- and body-relaxing!
• Gaming: Gather around with your family or friends and play games. You have a wide selection of them; board games like Chess or Checkers, computer games, video games, strategy games like Scrabble or Monopoly, etc.
• Sporting: You can do a bunch of fun sports that are also good for your health. You can go swimming, horse-riding, skating, ball sporting, team sporting, etc.
