What is the ruling on earning money from an advertising website that profits the subscriber through browsing advertisements, and whose profit increases when other people subscribe through him?
Source: FtawySummarized from the full answer at Ftawy · imported Sep 2, 2026
If there are no subscription fees for the website, and the content is free from শরী'আ-prohibited elements, then there is no harm in taking a commission for browsing or bringing in subscribers. However, if the subscriber pays fees for browsing and earning, or if the advertisements are prohibited, then this is impermissible (haram).
