Earning through online ads

· 26 Safar 1445 AH1 min readEnglish

Question

If I force people to click on the ad and then download the file and ad network don't really allow such activities, will my earnings be halaal or haraam?

Answer

This way of earning is not recognized in Islam. Hence, the wealth acquired through this means is not halaal.

And Allah Ta'ala (الله تعالى) knows best.
