Playing cards is generally prohibited in Islam because it distracts people from remembering Allah and from prayer. Additionally, it can lead to gambling, which is expressly forbidden in the Quran. However, if no gambling is involved, it is still considered makruh (disliked) as it is a waste of time.
And Allah knows best.
