Ask an Alim

Can we read books like biographies of ambitious people, business leaders, entreprenuers, politicians, etc?

Q:

Can I read these kinds of biographies about ambitious people, politicians, and business leaders?

It is allowed to read and not sinful. I am willing to read books to better my life and the lives of others by trying to be a good leader in all different aspects of life.

Jazakallah.
