Joining summer centers

Q 4: We have a lot of leisure time during the summer vacation. (Part No. 26; Page No. 322) Based on our desire not to waste this time in what displeases Allah, we thought of joining the summer centers. These centers differ according to their administrations. Here in Jeddah, we have one of the biggest and most popular summer centers due to two reasons:Firstly: Those in charge of it are righteous knowledge seekers, although none can verify this but Allah.Secondly: The equipment in the center are not available in any other center. The center is open all week days except Thursdays and Fridays during the summer. We memorize the Qur'an, learn Hadith and hold religious lectures and seminars, in addition to other cultural, social and physical activities plus the academic and interactive courses and the enjoyable field trips. All of this is done in a religious atmosphere that encourages doing acts of obedience to Allah and discourages all acts of disobedience. We even feel religiously better and away from Satan's evil insinuations.After putting everything before you, what is your opinion in this regard?Do you advise us to continue going to this summer center? Please answer us, and may Allah reward you and bless you!

A: There is no harm in joining a summer center, which benefits you and saves your time, as long as those in charge of it are righteous people and there are no evil acts involved. We ask Allah to guide everyone to what pleases Him!May Allah grant us success. May peace and blessings be upon our Prophet Muhammad, his family, and Companions.
