Effect of Watching Bad Series

Question:

Asalamu alaikom
In a series i was watching a character made a joke about sex and called it "holey war" (talking about the holes in the human body) so they made a joke about holy wars. Is this making fun of jihad ? And if so, can i still watch this show ?
Answer:

All perfect praise be to Allah, The Lord of the Worlds. I testify that there is none worthy of worship except Allah, and that Muhammad sallallaahu `alayhi wa sallam ( may Allaah exalt his mention ) is His slave and Messenger.

What you mentioned has nothing to do with making fun of Jihaad.

We perceive from your previous questions that you are affected with whispers. Therefore, you have to avoid them and totally repel them. Such questions reinforce your whispers and it becomes difficult for you to get rid of them.

You should also be careful not to watch such series that corrupt the minds and the hearts of the people. Rather, you should be keen on spending your time in what benefits you in your religion and worldly matters, because time is a great blessing. Ibn Abbaas may Allaah be pleased with him narrated that the Prophet, sallallaahu `alayhi wa sallam ( may Allaah exalt his mention ) said: “There are two blessings in which many people incur loss: health and free time.” [Al-Bukhari]

Allah knows best.
