The Ruling on Player Images with Prize Competitions
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
The school put up pictures of a soccer player, and under the picture it says, “Wipe and win prizes.” Is this considered gambling?
Answer:
This is the very essence of evil, consuming wealth unjustly, promoting forbidden images, and admiring the players—admiring these trivial players. This is exalting their status and promoting their praise; in other words, it is all invalid matters.
