I would not agree with this statement. There are many powers and actions that, while not expressly prohibited, are also not permitted or acceptable. For instance, while a person is not expressly prohibited from driving while taking a prescription for opiate pain medications, that person is not permitted to drive freely unless they are sober.

In Islam everything is halal "permitted" from food to sports, drinks, travel ... so long they are not mentioned among those which are prohibited or so long they do not contradict with the Quranic and Sunnah teachings. So if you compare what is prohibited to what is permitted, you could say there is almost nothing in Islam is prohibited. There is a rule in Islam which says: "Everything is permitted unless mentioned otherwise".
