It is permissible to collect and exchange stamps and postcards, provided they do not contain forbidden images, polytheistic symbols, or music. A Muslim should preserve their time and money, not wasting them on things that offer no benefit. They should also be aware of suspicious entities that seek to occupy Muslims' time with what is useless.
