The fatwa asserts that any act posing a threat to life is considered un-Islamic

Religious scholars have issued a fatwa declaring aerial firing, kite flying, and performing wheelies (one-wheeling) as un-Islamic. The fatwa emphasizes that any action endangering human life is strictly prohibited in Islam.

The scholars’ statement highlights Islam’s prioritization of the preservation of human life, declaring activities such as kite flying and wheelies – which often involve significant risk – tantamount to self-harm.

Aerial firing, with its inherent danger to life, is also explicitly condemned.

The fatwa asserts that any act posing a threat to life is considered un-Islamic, reiterating Islam’s strong emphasis on safeguarding human life.

The scholars explicitly categorize aerial firing, kite flying, and wheelies as life-threatening activities strictly forbidden in Islamic teachings, likening them to suicide. Islam, they emphasize, forbids self-endangerment.
