The question

What is the ruling on paying the website "SoundCloud" to upload the Quran and beneficial lectures without limits, and is this considered support for them, knowing that the site is widely used to publish songs, and is this interaction considered like the Prophet's (peace be upon him) interaction with the Jews?

The answer

We hope there is no harm in that, for we mentioned in a previous that earning money by uploading videos to YouTube and similar platforms is permissible if the uploaded videos have permissible content. There is no significant difference between earning money from such platforms and paying money to them. Indeed, paying money to these platforms to spread good is even more deserving of permissibility than earning permissible money through them. It does not appear that this interaction with these platforms is like the Prophet's (peace be upon him) dealings with the Jews in buying and selling.
