Please tell me if the following is OK. I make a website. This website will show an ad which will ask people to have an online CV / Resume. In other words, I will be selling people a suitable domain name such as “your_name.com” along with some webspace to upload the CV / Resume in the form of a webpage. The transaction will be made through credit / debit cards. Please tell me if any of the following are problematic:
2. Mufti Dawood Ahmad of Jamia Ashrafia told me that it is not permissible to transact with shias and qadyanis. Since the transaction is automatic, I later find out that a Shia or a Qadyani has purchased the package. Will the proceeds from this transaction be Halal?
3. In the above mentioned business proposition, I will be having a “Reseller’s Account” with a company say “XYZ”, i.e., I sell the domain names and webspace on XYZ’s behalf or I buy these services from XYZ and then resell them. My question is that does it matter if the overall business of XYZ is Halaal or Haraam if XYZ is (principally but not completely (as is the case with multinational companies)) based in Darul Harb country with services being offered world wide (on the internet). I am based in Pakistan. Can I transact with such a company regardless of their overall business being Halaal or Haraam? Web services company may be hosting gambling, pornographic and banking websites among other contrary to Islamic Shariah.
In the name of Allah, Most Gracious, Most Merciful
