Since the aforementioned channel will combine permissible clips with clips containing prohibited content, it falls under the ruling of mixed companies. Investing in such companies is a matter about which scholars have differed, and what is most preponderant in our view is its prohibition. Therefore, it is not permissible for you to participate with your friends in this manner, and if you gain anything from it, you must donate an amount equivalent to the proportion of the unlawful content within it.
