    My q is ;

    Are fighting sports halal especially Mma like muy thai and boxing ?

    Because in these sports you do have to hit the face. A famous hadith is beein quoted that prophet muhammed [saw] forbade hitting the face! I forgot the reference.

    If we muslims don’t learn these fighting skills to protect ourselves then how did the companions used to train?

    Weren’t they training in order to be skillfull when time comes !?

    How should we muslims then train in self defense while all fighting sports require to hit the face!

    Can you elaborate please?

    Jazakamullah!

    For self-defense purposes, acquiring fighting skills is essential. Martial arts have been a part of human culture for centuries. However, it’s crucial to distinguish between practicing these skills for personal protection and turning them into a profession that involves intentionally harming others, which is forbidden.
