Is the income from a foosball table permissible or forbidden?
It is not permissible to play this game because it involves ثلاثي الأبعاد statues, which is unanimously prohibited. Furthermore, it contains another forbidden element, which is gambling. The winner often pays nothing, while the loser pays the rent and perhaps something else agreed upon in advance, and this is prohibited gambling. If playing it is forbidden, then its wage and the earnings of its owner are unlawful, as the Prophet, peace and blessings be upon him, said: "Indeed, when Allah prohibits something for a people, He prohibits its price for them."
