The phrase idle talks appears in this ayah;
“And of mankind is he who purchases idle talks (i.e. music, singing) to mislead (men) from the path of Allaah…” [Luqmaan 31:6]
In an article about music being haram it was mentioned that idle talks are used to distract from the Qur'an and there were people in Makkah telling stories about roman kings and it was kafirs work. Source
So my question is, if we should include tv shows or series into this idle talk definition or not.
