The Ruling on Cellphone Games- Shaikh Yahya Ibn Ali al-Hajoori

Question: What is the ruling on games which are on the cell-phone?

Answer: “If they have pictures, then they are not allowed due to the statement of the Prophet (ﷺ) :

لا تدع صورة إلا طمستها

Do not leave an image without obliterating it

[Saheeh Muslim no. 969]

Also, what is in it will busy from the remembrance of Allah. So avoid it”.
