Can anyone share if entering in a gambling Signature campaigns and get earning from them is HALAL or Haram in Islam.
Please note that I know Playing Gambling is Haram in Islam, but participating only in signature campaign is ok or not ?

Please share your Opinion.

Are you kidding?

No one can make that decision for you. You need to consider your faith, your devotion to your faith, and how this activity aligns with or violates those beliefs.

This is actually a pretty decent question if you assume that he's not talking about doing any actual gambling himself.

It's a similar question to whether it's ok to own or work at a food establishment that involves serving pork.

You're better off talking to an Imam or Hadith scholar, because the Bitcoin part is much easier to explain to them, than the Islam part is to explain to people here. There are lots of reasonable grounds for nuance and making exceptions due to context, I'm not necessarily sure with respect to behaviors like gambling, etc., but definitely in terms of dietary law and the good intentions of the non-Muslim people you're dealing with in good faith.

I think it is more like, whether it's ok to wear a billboard on your body
along the side of the street, that is advertising the consumption of pork
for a certain food establishment, that sells only pork. In that context,
it is likely haram, except in instances where that is the only job you
can get and others depend on you. If you could do other things to
attain that money within the law, God would prefer those actions.

If the OP is even asking the question, it is likely they should not do it.
Justifying loopholes in God's Law are willful violation attempts, which
are worse than the actual deed performed without the loophole.

I am not a muslim, so take my words with a grain of salt.

Well, as long as you are not Gambling yourself, I guess it's ok. I mean Halal, or kosher:)
Promotion only is fine

Yes, thats what i think. Wearing only the signature is OK. Lets hear more opinions.

I am very sensitive to be discussed so I think in Islam is very clear in the determination of halal and haramnya, if it is like this should return to the concerned only, whether this is kosher or haram

I think so

What I know about gambling is haram according to Islamic teachings. If you have any questions, do you participate in a gambling campaign only, is that good or not? I think if you are a Muslim who believes in God then whatever form it aims to help something that is prohibited in our teachings, then the law is the same we support it. Preferably if you want to be safe and comfortable please look for a campaign that you think is good. I'm sorry, I just explained what I know. :) :)

if we work to promote a gambling site for example, the possibility is not good in Islam, because indirectly we also come to invite people to play gambling. but if we work at the place of gambling with the reason hard to find a job that new may, but it's just a job while after we find a decent work place  :)

wearing only signature is not halal dude.you are wearing a haram issue that doesn't support in Islam.you are promoting a site that is haram,so wearing a signature that include gambling site is haram. The best solution will be go to nearest mosque, and ask about it to the Imam saheb. He can explain it more briefly.
Where you from? I think you are Muslim.I am also Muslim.

Religion create confusion when you are seeking for others opinion. Just ask youself, and choose the option based on your knowing . Don't build any self pity.

Also I do not know about this, but until now I still do it. I do not know and do not want to speculate, I mean I'm not sure if I answered halal or haram. My science is still very lacking, so if I answer without extensive knowledge, I'm afraid my answer is wrong and instead spreading something wrong.

Disclaimer: I am in no way liable for giving iput in this discussion.I am not an scholar either.

Gambling is haram itself. So promoting it in signature is like inviting others to gamble. That should be haram as well.

Exactly. You should know your faith. What does you religious law is telling you. But gambling is gambling we all know that it involves money or something similar but i dont think signature campaign is the same. We work for it and we get paid for our work. It is like being employed and u get your salary from your work. Campaigns are work but it still depends on what your religion is telling you what to and what not to do.

are you a muslim? if yes, then it is up to you whether it is halal or haram, if according to you, then the answer is easy, do not participate in the signature campaign. then more opportunities for other bounty hunter to earn money hahahhaha

Yes, it is Halal as long as you don't gamble. I'm not Muslim but I'm specialist about Islam. Gambling is haram and promotion is halal. If you can place billboards then why not join this signature campaigns? You can join these signature campaigns and you can trade these coins, but not gamble. Don't day trade since it's like gambling. Most day traders lose than they earn. You are going to fail.
Proof that I'm Islamic specialist: Islam is peaceful religion, but not one of most peaceful. Buddhism is most peaceful one. These brainless "Islamic" terrorists only ruin reputation of Islam. No true Muslim will do it.

yes, in islam gambling is forbidden but if you only associate with the signature ith it depends on the dii each dii each nutrients or not because we only work but do not play gambling, only we know the possible results we get is the result of gambling site so it could be haram

Where do they get the income to pay the signature members? Yes, they get it from their gambling operation. So if gambling

is prohibited in your religion, then the extra income you receive from signature campaigns where gambling is involved, should

also not be allowed. You should ask your Priest or whatever religious figure you respect.  ???

Very good point but see this example.
Interest is also prohibited in Islam, so people working in banks get salary from the interest which bank earns...so all the people employeed in banks are earning Haram ?

There's no science here, only the centuries old writings of
some religious figure that some people still worship.  Glad I don't
conduct my life based on that.  Plus I'd say most of the problem
gamblers in bitcoin are probably hypocritical muslims anyway. :-X

Keep religion out of this.

I agree with this statement and opinion. In cases where gambling is prohibited of course its promotion is also prohibited and in fact it is actually the promotion that can lead people to do something. The same stand maybe expressed with many Christian denominations but we all know that many (hope not most) Christians are nominal Christians meaning they do not follow the strict interpretation of their faith.

I agree with your opinion. Because I think it is clear in the rules of Islam if you participate in promoting gambling, you include supporting it, so safer look for other campaigns. But back again to you, because to someone's faith depends on each

I'm not a Muslim but I would assume that it would not be haram to advertise something that may be haram, as long as you are not encouraging other muslims to perform such an action or use such a service. But really I don't care what most muslims do so long as it is not interfering with me.

It all depends on what school of thought you want to subscribe to I guess. I don't know islam.

This is the same as marketing. I'm not sure what is Islam view on marketing itself but i doubt it would endorse promoting the gambling. But this is just my opinion since i don't know much about Islam.

The point of such rules is to be a better person in life and looking for angles to a religion seems to be all we really need to know about how well you practice said religion.  You are not presenting this like a debate but more a way to either create spam or to justify ones viewpoint and proceed. Try going to the local Mosque and asking, asking here is like asking average Joe about bitcoin being a good investment or not!

If you are gambling by yourselve you could say it is haram and not halal, but on the other part you are not by gambling yourselve so therefore it is not haram but you are promoting it.
Exactly as I read some comments before, it is like working in a restaurant where they serve pork meat and you are not eating it but wearing a shirt with the brand of the restaurant and promoting it, you work for your income and living or to maintaing your family and/or children, this is nothing else, you are earning some btc to live and therefore promote something you wouldnt do.
Best thought about this is if you do believe you are on the wrong part you shouldnt do it, on the other hand you are just promoting and having some income, same goes to me. Inshallah this is not haram.

Its an unique way of marketing. There are several banking platforms that functions with reference to the Islamic law. In those banks they won't pay interest for the savings you have made over the bank, but they used to collect interest on loans. So use of terms such as haram and so on is simply a marketing technique.

I think it is Haram in Islam as it is clearly written that not to play or nor to support gambling and if you are not playing but you are promoting the gambling sites through your signature campaign. So it is Haram in Islam.

I dont really get what you mean by saying ''so use of terms such as haram and so on is simply a marketing technique'' , In islam it is true that it is not allowed to put your money in banks and profit from the interest of the banks (earning and lending, basically stealing money over the back spinal of the poor people) , nor is it not allowed to lend money and therefore pay interest over your lendings to the bank, the use of the term haram is not for any marketing techniques but just the way of honest living, has nothing to do with marketing techniques.

Of course haram, because we participate in promoting gambling and the like, I think better leave all the forbidden things and re looking for the halal.

You should not promote Haram things so if you get paid for promoting something that is haram,your earnings will also be haram

If you dont force people to do gamble and only add it as a signature to feed your livings and earnings, then it may be OK but still you should read the books of your religion to be very clear about it.
By the way, I can see OP already in the Gambling campaign ;)

I can not explain in detail about it, but keep in mind gambling and all the related things in it is haram, maybe there is another opinion about it. hopefully we do include good things.

I believe he cannot find an Islamic scholar on this forum. He must consult his religious preachers who have a good knowledge of it. As far as I know, the religion of Islam prohibits gambling itself and definitely its promotion also. Still, our answers cannot be satisfying in any way.

I never want to join a gambling signature campaign, because When you join gambling campaign signature, it means you help promote the gambling project and you get paid using gambling money, so I think it is HARAM

Any gambling type consider as haram , not only Islam but other religion will say the same.

Overall it's back to each personal whenever they still want to gamble with or without religion purpose as long as they gamble with responsible, it's will be OK

Signatures campaigns are completely kosher!

I am not an expert in Islamic rules but know some of it.

If you promote signature campaign, imo you are working for it. Does the Islamic rules allow you to work for gambling related jobs?

I have seen some Muslims working for supermarket that sell pork and alochol. I believe it depend whether how the individuals look at it.

I GUESS, it is a forbidden act by Islam, why? because we directly or not have are supporting gamble that has been clearly forbidden in Islam. but if you are still in doubt, you should ask your local scholars.

Well in my opinion it considered haram,because you help to advertise a gambling service that considered haram as well
If you are hesitate about it,don't do it,join a campaign that not promote a gambling service,i think there is more than eligible campaign that you could join rather than gambling service

It’s your decision, what’s your belief, ask yourself then if you still doubting you can go to the mosque and ask the scholars. Besides it’s like there’s no campaign than the gambling campaign.
