1. What is the jurisprudential ruling on browsing pornographic websites prevalent on the Internet in Iraq? 2. Does the cafe owner bear jurisprudential responsibility if some people browse these websites in his cafe, even though he is aware of a sign prohibiting it? 3. Is the money taken from these browsers permissible or impermissible? 4. What is the stance of other browsers toward individuals who engage in such acts?
It is impermissible to open an internet café if its owner cannot prevent visitors from engaging in unlawful acts. The owner would be sinful if he does so while knowing that patrons are committing forbidden acts. A sign prohibiting browsing pornographic websites would be of no benefit to him. Furthermore, the fees collected from such browsing are unlawful. It is advised to avoid opening such cafés unless they are regulated by controls that prevent the commission of unlawful acts.
