What is the ruling on watching advertisements that contain objectionable content in electronic games in exchange for obtaining virtual money within the game, given the possibility of avoiding the objectionable content by averting one's gaze or muting the sound, and does the fact that advertisers profit from these views affect the ruling?

It is not permissible to view prohibited advertisements, such as alcohol advertisements, and earning from browsing them is not lawful. As for advertisements of permissible things that contain objectionable elements (like images of immodestly dressed women or music), viewing and browsing them is not forbidden, provided one lowers their gaze and mutes the sound. Earning from them in this case is also not forbidden. It is obligatory to preserve one's time and not spend it except on that which brings religious or worldly benefit.
