What is the ruling on earning profit from Google AdSense when displaying advertisements for real estate, beverages, markets, games, cars, buying and selling websites, perfumes, and education, while prohibiting advertisements for forex, banks, images, videos, and unlawful films? And what is the ruling on the money that has been earned and spent from this program?

The questioner must estimate the proportion of impermissible advertisements to the total number of displayed advertisements, and then निकाल (remove/deduct) the value of this proportion from the money earned. This is because the majority of jurists hold that if permissible (halal) wealth mixes with impermissible (haram) wealth, the impermissible portion must be extracted and given to its rightful owner so that the remainder becomes permissible.
