			Assalamualaikum May Allah bless

00:00:06 --> 00:00:12

			Hamid, from Gombe state Nigeria, I
am a diploma holder is it allowed

00:00:12 --> 00:00:15

			in Islam to participate in online
businesses?

00:00:20 --> 00:00:24

			whatever business you do, whether
it be online, whether it be

00:00:24 --> 00:00:29

			offline, it has to be within the
purview of the Islamic Sharia. You

00:00:29 --> 00:00:32

			cannot break any rule of the
Islamic Sharia.

00:00:35 --> 00:00:41

			And any business that is haram
prohibited offline, it is even

00:00:41 --> 00:00:46

			prohibited online. The same type
of business it is even prohibited

00:00:46 --> 00:00:46

			online.

00:00:49 --> 00:00:53

			Now the online business that you
do, it should not involve in

00:00:53 --> 00:00:54

			selling haram products.

00:00:56 --> 00:01:00

			For example, selling alcohol,
selling poke, selling nones or be

00:01:00 --> 00:01:02

			Hamid selling cigarettes etc.

00:01:04 --> 00:01:08

			You should not sell any haram
products. Besides that,

00:01:09 --> 00:01:13

			the online business that you do
the information that you give, it

00:01:13 --> 00:01:15

			should not be misleading

00:01:16 --> 00:01:19

			and it should be correct
information.

00:01:20 --> 00:01:24

			It should not misguide the people
it's not give misinformation about

00:01:24 --> 00:01:24

			any product.

00:01:27 --> 00:01:28

			Besides this,

00:01:30 --> 00:01:33

			you should not give false hopes
and promises to the people.

00:01:34 --> 00:01:40

			For example, you tell the people
you tell the customers that the

00:01:40 --> 00:01:43

			product that you're selling, you
can return it for example in seven

00:01:43 --> 00:01:45

			days, but when they want to return
it you do not accept

00:01:48 --> 00:01:52

			the online business that you do it
should not involve in cheating,

00:01:52 --> 00:01:56

			gambling or luck. Our Beloved
Prophet Muhammad peace be upon him

00:01:56 --> 00:02:00

			said man hashanah fillet Samina
whosoever cheats he is not from

00:02:00 --> 00:02:04

			among us. So cheating is
prohibited in Islam you should

00:02:04 --> 00:02:05

			abstain from it

00:02:08 --> 00:02:12

			besides this, the transactions
that you do it should not involve

00:02:12 --> 00:02:13

			in rebar

00:02:14 --> 00:02:17

			it should be free from interest
that is rebar.

00:02:18 --> 00:02:21

			This is very important that you
take care of this

00:02:24 --> 00:02:25

			the advertisements

00:02:27 --> 00:02:30

			it should not involve in anything
that is haram.

00:02:31 --> 00:02:36

			For example, the advertisement
should not have woman without

00:02:36 --> 00:02:36

			hijab

00:02:37 --> 00:02:39

			should not have music.

00:02:40 --> 00:02:46

			Most of the ads they involve in
something that is haram. So you

00:02:46 --> 00:02:48

			should abstain from such
advertisements.

00:02:50 --> 00:02:53

			You can discuss in detail
regarding online businesses.

00:02:54 --> 00:02:59

			I've just mentioned a few points.
So inshallah if you take care of

00:02:59 --> 00:03:03

			these things, if your business
does not involve in anything that

00:03:03 --> 00:03:07

			is haram, it does not break any
rule of the Sharia. Inshallah you

00:03:07 --> 00:03:10

			can do this online business
