What is the ruling on subscribing and investing in websites that rely on earning through clicking on advertisements, where advertising packages are purchased and points and money are received in exchange for viewing and distributing advertisements, with the possibility of inviting friends and getting a percentage from their clicks, knowing that the website's profits come from importing cars in Tunisia? And if the subscription is usurious, is it permissible to work in it without investing, or to bring new members without knowing whether they are investing or not? And is it permissible to reinvest profits without investing private capital? And is it permissible to sell the account if the work is usurious? And do these rulings apply to websites that invest money with a fixed profit?
It is not permissible to deal with or promote the aforementioned website due to the Shariah prohibitions, deception, and misguidance it contains. One must refrain from dealing with it, even if the initial capital is from a permissible source. As for the ruling on other websites that invest money with a fixed profit, it depends on knowing the method of transaction and the terms of the contract.
