My credit card company has launched a campaign that if I you use my credit card during a certain period of time (once or more) it will enable me to enter a withdraw of prizes. Q. If I win a prize, will this be halal or haram? Please note that I don’t pay interest on my card i.e. I pay the credit card company the whole amount on all of my purchases and I don’t pay the annual fee as well.
Answer
If you win a prize due to you using your credit card during the specific time launched by the campaign, it will be permissible.
