Is working in companies that sell paid, satellite-broadcast television channel services unlawful (haram), due to some of these channels containing unlawful (haram) content?
Source: FtawySummary from Ftawy's records · added here Sep 2, 2026
It is forbidden to work for companies that sell paid satellite TV channels that broadcast forbidden content, because this constitutes cooperation in sin and aggression, and assists the people of vice in their vice. Therefore, you must leave this job and seek lawful employment, and repent to Allah Almighty for what has passed.
