A:
The news of actors, actresses and singers usually imply deviation from the straight path, which promotes idle entertainment, immorality, evil and such behavior that affects people's integrity, dignity and moral values. Undoubtedly, working in such a field is impermissible, as it is considered a form of cooperation in sin and transgression. Thus, it cannot be a source of living, while there are numerous sources of living. A person should fear Allah (Exalted be He) as He should be feared, as Allah says,
And whosoever fears Allâh and keeps his duty to Him, He will make a way for him to get out (from every difficulty).
And He will provide him from (sources) he never could imagine.
(Surah Al-Talaq, 65: 2-3). Allah (Exalted be He) also says,
And whosoever puts his trust in Allâh, then He will suffice him. Verily, Allâh will accomplish his purpose. Indeed Allâh has set a measure for all things.
May Allah grant us success. May peace and blessings be upon our Prophet Muhammad, his family, and Companions.
