What is the ruling on marketing children's products through a Facebook group for a 10% commission, given the fear of familiarity between genders or the dissemination of religiously impermissible images and songs within the group, and is the owner of the group accountable for these violations?

1 min readAlso available in العربية

The use of social media for advertising and promotion is widespread, and the following Sharia rulings must be observed: assigning each gender to a specific group to prevent gender mixing, observing Sharia etiquette in personal photos while warning against indecent images, and noting that the group administrator is not held accountable for Sharia violations published by some members, but rather the publisher bears the sin. Furthermore, honesty and trustworthiness must be observed in presentation, and exaggeration in praising the product must be avoided.
