#661: Ruling on Advertising on Websites

QUESTION:

“Assalam alaikum. Please what’s the ruling on earning from advertising websites in Islam??”

ANSWER:

Wa ‘Alaykum Salām Warahmatullāh Wabarakātuh.

Alhamdulillāh.

This is Permissible and allowed as one of the transactions that involves commissions, as long as the Website and/or the goods that are advertised are not transactions or promotional dealings that are Harām.

Most companies for instance, love to advertise on porn sites as they anticipate a great deal of traffic on such sites.

It is Harām for any Muslim to be involved in this kind of dealing.

Likewise, it is Harām for any Muslim who owns a high traffic site for instance to give audience to a company that deals in Harām such as Alcoholic Companies to place their advertisements on his website. This would amount to aiding and abetting the promotion of their Harām dealing company.

Same applies to a company that deals in Halāl but which is known for it’s war against Muslims or whose proceeds are used to finance a war against Islām and Muslims.

May Allāh bless the Muslim Ummah with Halāl wealth and dealings, Amin.

Bārakallāhu Fīkum
Jazākumullāhu Khayran.
