Is selling travel insurance without promotion and donating proceeds to charity permissible in Islam?

Answered as per Hanafi Fiqh by Muftisays.com
Is Travel Insurance Haram? Is selling travel insurance as secondary revenue without PROMOTING it (i.e. only providing policy if a client asks for it) ok? or can we send the proceeds to a charity?

Answer
Bismillah

Assalamu alaikum,

All conventional insurances contain the elements of gambling and interest, which are haraam, hence insurances and it’s income will be forbiden and impermissible.

And Allah Taa`la Knows Best.
