Is being an internet service provider a halal business?

Answered as per Hanafi Fiqh by Darulifta-Deoband.com

Answer

(Fatwa: 559/440/D=1434)

Internet is used in both lawful and unlawful ways. Hence the person who provides the service shall not be sinful rather the person who uses it in wrong way shall be sinful. However, if the service provider considers about someone that he shall only use it in unlawful way then he should avoid providing it to him.
