Question

Is being pleased in a game where you can come back to life kufr? In cod mobile. if someone is named Adam and I say ism ala ghair musama does that count as kufr/mocking prophets?

Answer

Refrain from playing these types of haraam games as in many cases, they have pictures of animate objects, music, men and women mixing, indecency, violence, etc. In some cases they even corrode one's belief structure. Therefore playing these types of games is haraam.

And Allah Ta'ala (الله تعالى) knows best.
