đĸ NOTICE: Permanent Closure of Marathon Event Arrangements
We would like to inform everyone that we are permanently discontinuing the arrangement of all types of marathon events.
This decision has been made after careful consideration of Islamic principles related to sports and recreational activities. Islam does not prohibit all forms of physical activity but sets certain guidelines to ensure they remain within the boundaries of Shariâah. These include:
1. The activity must be inherently permissible and free from haram elements.
2. It must serve a beneficial purposeâreligious or worldlyâand should not involve significant risk to life or be pursued solely for entertainment.
3. No Shariâah-violating elements should be present (e.g., music, mixed-gender participation, immodest dress).
4. The activity must not lead to negligence in religious duties such as prayer or remembrance of Allah.
Based on these criteria, we found that marathon events often conflict with the above conditions, particularly in terms of dress code, mixed gatherings, and potential distraction from religious obligations. Therefore, in compliance with our values and in pursuit of greater Islamic consciousness, we have decided to stop organizing such events permanently.
We continue to encourage personal physical fitness within Shariâah boundaries and urge everyone to prioritize beneficial activities that align with Islamic ethics.
Thank you for your understanding.
