Source: FtawySummary from Ftawy's records · added here Sep 2, 2026
It is permissible to buy and sell online and with credit cards, provided that it does not involve usurious contracts. As for earning money from the internet, some of it is permissible and some is forbidden, depending on the nature of the transaction. It is not possible to rule on it with a general ruling; rather, a specific case must be inquired about.
