QUESTION:

Asalaam Alaaykum,

I was wondering if tai-chi would be permissible for a Muslim man or
lady?
It is a martial art and it involves movements that look something like
dance but are not intended to be dance?

ANSWER:

It all depends on the intentions. If it is not intended as a dance,
there is no objection


With Salaams and Duas
