What is the ruling on a cultural competition about Jerusalemite knowledge and the Palestinian cause, for which entry forms are sold, the profits from which are spent on the organizing bodies, and in which in-kind prizes are awarded to winners by draw, under the sponsorship of commercial entities?

As long as the subject of the competition is beneficial, its field is legitimate, and its goal is to raise awareness about the Palestinian cause and Jerusalemite knowledge, there is no objection to participating in it or conducting it. A group of scholars have permitted this type of academic competition, which is used to uphold the religion and elevate its status.
