Definition Of Laghw And Lahw
hello there o want to know that what exactly is the definition of laghw and lahw, some ulema say like hanafi ulma that laghw is anything without benefit which may or may not contain evil or sinful speech. so they say that anything that wastes time and does not benefit us is laghw. so would it mean that the laghw mentioned in surah mominoon, that muminoon are those that avoid laghw. would it be said that muminoon are those that avoid things which are of time waste? and that time waste is sin by this category of this ayah? because a true Muslim is that who avoids it. so is time wasting against those properties of a mümin? like playing games and talking with a friend about tournament of football

@Irfan76 as also in tafsir of Ghamidi and ıslahı it was written that ‘laghw’ is something which has no benefit of world or hereafter. but in another video ghamidi sahab says that “laghw” is anything morally not suitable like sitting in a environment of abusive and falsehood talks. where a gentleman does not like to sit. so reading the former paragraph, we get to see that anything that has no benefit in this life or hereafter, that act, whether moral or immoral, comes in category of laghw. which would mean that playing games for fun, or doing out with friends for fun or talking with a friend for example on a fifa tournament of 1995, all these would be counter or against the notion of true momin.
but when we hear the latter paragraph of Ghamidi Sahab, it gives an impression that none of the above mentioned things are wrong, like time wasting activities like playing games more than one should but if it’s under the realm of Halal and also not affecting a moral vibe of a person and not driving him away from God, then it’s okay. so can you please clear the confusion
-
Laghw is useless or futile, and lahw means the activity that leads one away from God or religion.
To have fun is the need of our Nafs. However, if one indulges in it to forget one’s prayers or other religious obligations, then it becomes lahw.
-
So that mean that I cannot play football ,because sometimes i have to pray togheter two prayer.
-
It means you can, because the relaxation to combine prayer for valid excuses is granted by God.
-
But I want to understand is Laghw is a sin?a seriuos sin?
Id I understand well,as long as there is a relaxation of Any type you can use it but with a valid excuse.
For example if you Miss the prayer because you were watching a football match on Tv ,then is a laghw.
But if you are in a stadium where you cannot pray ,you can combine prayer?
Is my reasoning right?
-
Right.
God has allowed us to use these relaxations for any of our activities that are not sinful. Sports are a good activity.

The Prophet (ﷺ) said, “Avoid the seven great destructive sins.” They (the people!) asked, “O Allah’s Apostle! What are they?” He said, “To join partners in worship with Allah; to practice sorcery; to kill the life which Allah has forbidden except for a just cause (according to Islamic law); to eat up usury (Riba), to eat up the property of an orphan; to give one’s back to the enemy and fleeing from the battle-field at the time of fighting and to accuse chaste women who never even think of anything touching chastity and are good believers.” (Bukhari 6857)

But you says that the major sins are only Shirk,Zina and killing innocent.
And what do you mean by:accuse chaste women who never even think of anything touching chastity and are good believers
You mean that if she doesnt dress well you can call her not chaste?or even if she has a public long relanthionship(not martire)?
-
The intensity of a sin makes it major. The three major sins are the most prominent.
A false accusation of zina is “accusing chaste women.”
