Law and Sin of Watching Adult Films, and How to Repent to Not Repeat It

The command to guard one's gaze has been explained in Surah An-Nur verse 30: "Say to the believing men that they should lower their gaze and guard their modesty: that will make for greater purity for them: And Allah is well acquainted with all that they do." (Quran 24:30). So, what about watching adult films? What is the ruling in Islam? Let's find out more about the ruling and sin of watching adult films below!

"The Law of Watching Adult Films in Islam".

Sheikh Dr. Amr Al Wardani from the Fatwa Commission of the Egyptian Institution Dar Al Ifta explained that watching adult films is considered an act that violates Islamic law. Adult films directly reveal the act of adultery, which is a shameful act for Muslims. Watching adult films also stimulates one's desires to engage in adultery. In Islam, adultery is considered a major sin.

"Allah SWT said:"

"And do not approach adultery, indeed, it is a shameful act. And a way that is evil." (Quran Surah Al Isra verse 32)

How to Remove Sin Watching Adult Movies for Muslims

The way to erase the sin of watching adult films is to repent to Allah SWT. The habit of watching adult films can encourage someone's lust to engage in masturbation and invite adultery, which leads to a major sin. A person should control their desires and genitals unless they are married and engage in sexual activities with a lawful partner.

"Dan orang-orang yang memelihara kemaluannya, kecuali terhadap isteri-isteri mereka atau budak-budak yang mereka miliki, maka sesungguhnya mereka dalam hal ini tiada tercela. Barangsiapa mencari yang di balik itu, maka mereka itulah orang-orang yang melampaui batas." "And those who guard their private parts, except from their wives or those whom their right hands possess, then indeed, they are not to be blamed. But whoever seeks beyond that, then those are the transgressors."

"(Quran Surat Al Ma'arij verses 29-31)"

"Diligent Fasting"

If not yet able to get married, Islam teaches its followers to control their desires by fasting. "O young people, whoever has the ability to get married, then get married. Because it will lower the gaze and protect one's chastity. Whoever is not able, then fast because fasting is like a restraint for them." (HR Bukhari and Muslim)

"In this way, the way to erase the sin of watching adult movies is by repenting sincerely and firmly resolving not to repeat it again. You can divert your attention with positive activities."

Besides, the most important way for Allah to forgive sins due to watching adult films is by increasing worship and understanding of the Islamic religion. By doing so, a person can avoid things that are prohibited by Allah SWT.
