Question Detail:

----Clarifications on Yoga Fatwa----

Answer :

In the Name of Allah, the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful.

As-salāmu ‘alaykum wa-rahmatullāhi wa-barakātuh.

If the stretch exercises you refer to have nothing to do with yoga, then it is not yoga. We have stated that yoga is impermissible, not the stretch exercises you refer to.

And Allah Ta’āla Knows Best
