For work in the advertising field to be permissible, the advertised item must be permissible (), and the advertisements themselves must be free from forbidden elements such as images of unveiled women (mutabarrijat) and music. Advertisements for games are permissible if the accompanying music can be avoided, though it is better to avoid them altogether. Advertisements for restaurants are permissible if they feature permissible (halal) items or are general in nature. However, if they include promotion for forbidden things, they are not permissible. It is generally better to avoid this type of work altogether.
