Organised Distractions (Lahw) and their Dangers upon the Muslim Ummah (contd...)

And there are some matters of lahw, which are haram (forbidden) such as betting, playing dice (gambling), and song that involves forbidden matters; as well as permissible lahw that leads to haram, or leads to neglecting an obligation, due to the principle, "All that which leads to haram, is itself haram." For example that form of lahw that keeps man away from the salah or from fasting would be haram. Also that lahw that distracts man from the obligation of carrying the da'wa, and re-establishing the Islamic State would also be forbidden, because it distracts man from his obligations.
