Is money from tickets sold for a musical concert permissible or forbidden?
Source: FtawySummary from Ftawy's records · added here Sep 2, 2026
The price of an admission ticket to a singing concert is unlawful money, because it is not permissible to attend such concerts or to sell tickets for them. If Allah forbids something, He also forbids its price. One must repent to Allah. However, if the invitation is for something permissible, it is not allowed to sell the ticket without the permission of its owners.
