Source: FtawySummary from Ftawy's records · added here Sep 2, 2026
There is no objection to browsing websites, clicking on ads, and earning a fee for that, provided that the ads are permissible, and that it is not a trick or deception against the advertising entity, by giving it the impression of a large number of browsers. Otherwise, it is forbidden to the extent that it contains prohibitions.
