The question

What is your advice to me in the field of media, and how can I reconcile working in this field in a way that does not violate Islamic Sharia, with the desire for positive influence and benefiting the Ummah, especially with the problem of dealing with companies that do not serve dawah, and the challenges related to university studies in light of the suspicion of usury?

The answer

Media is important in an individual's life, and many Islamic channels free from religious prohibitions have emerged. It is not permissible for a Muslim to work in channels or advertising companies that are degenerate and include religious violations, so as not to partake in sin and transgression, and because sincerity with Allah and avoiding the unlawful are more important than financial capabilities. Usury (riba) is strictly forbidden, so university expenses must be obtained through means.
