Is it lawful to become a lifetime member of a magazine, newspaper, Hutch, Airtel, BSNL etc.?

Answered as per Hanafi Fiqh by Darulifta-Deoband.com
I want to know if it is lawful to become a life time member of any magazine newspaper for just Rs. 1000 or less-more. Please also tell me whether it is lawful to become a lifetime member of Hutch, Airtel, BSNL etc. for a certain amount or not?

Answer

(Fatwa: 286/M)

It is allowed to become a lifetime member of any magazine or newspaper with the intention of cooperation and contribution. (Fatwa Rahimiah) Likewise, it is permissible to become lifetime member of AirTel, Hucth and BSNL etc provided the norms are decided and it does not involve any Shart-e-Fasid (incorrect condition) and fear of Zarar (harm).
