The Ruling on Competitions Held by Drawing Card Numbers

Question:
The last question from our sister in this session is as follows: In some commercial or tourist game exhibitions, there is a drawing of entry card numbers. Whoever wants to enter the exhibition pays the price of the entry card, enters, and views what is in the exhibition or participates in some of the games. From time to time, a drawing is held of the entry card numbers, and prizes are distributed. Is it permissible to take these prizes, given that the person entering the exhibition has not lost anything, but rather viewed what is in the exhibition or participated in some of the games in exchange for the price of the entry card?

Answer:
This is gambling; it is not permissible. This is gambling and maysir (gambling), which is not permissible, and it is consuming wealth unjustly. We ask Allah for safety. One may lose and not benefit from anything. Yes, we ask Allah for safety. Yes.

The presenter : May Allah reward you with good.
