assalamalikum,

Is it permissible to study martial arts such as Tai Chi as it is also a form of meditation?



Bismillah

Al-jawab billahi at-taufeeq (the answer with Allah\'s guidance)


Tai chi has direct links with Taoism. Therefore, it will not be permissible to study this skill and even doing it as a fitness programme with or without meditation.



And Only Allah Ta'ala Knows Best.
