Sports and recreational matters have been carefully evaluated in Islamic law. Islam does not prevent games and entertainment if there is no risk of bad things in the game and entertainment . For this reason, Islam has made it permissible to play two types of sports subject to two conditions , viz . And the two types of games that are valid are Tahal- 1- Games that have physical benefits are valid. Such as running , football and cricket etc. 2-Training game against the enemy of religion is valid. Such as archery , horse racing etc. Besides, since all other games are unreasonable, in the eyes of Islam, it is makrooh and in some cases it is also haram. (Takmilatu Fathil Mulhim b. 4 pp. 434 , 435) Video Games Dear Questioner , Now let's talk about video games. There are a lot of people who get involved in games whenever they get a chance. But there are many haraam things involved in these. Most smartphone and computer games now have pictures of animals. There are also many more evil and sinful things involved in these games. For example , 1. Music , songs , musical instruments and musical instruments. 2. Nude and obscene pictures of naked women. 3. Respecting the infidels , propagating their corrupt culture and destroying Muslim children and youth. 4. There are many more evil things in these games, including the religious shirk-kufr beliefs of the infidels and the clever propaganda of the signs of the infidels among the Muslims. After all, playing games on mobile means wasting your precious resources and gradually turning it into an addiction. So as a Muslim one must refrain from this. Abu Huraira agreed. The Prophet (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) said : من حُسنِ إسلام المرء تركُهُ ما لا يعنيه (Jame Tirmizi 2239)
