Source: FtawySummary from Ftawy's records · added here Sep 2, 2026
The legal ruling on this issue takes the ruling of what is viewed through these channels. If the use of the channels is permissible and allows for the provision of the service, then it is lawful. However, if their use is bad or the service provider does not permit it, then such transactions become forbidden.
