Q: Google recently launched an application named TEZ where transactions can be done between banks to banks. Google TEZ also provides some great offers such as scratch cards, and other offers when we use that app or refer friends to this application. We can be able to earn some money through referals and transactions. Can I participate in this referal programs and transactions so that I can earn some money through that (intention is to earn money) . Is this money halal or haram? I have done transactions only because of getting money or gift cards or scratch cards which contains some money, for this I transfer some money to my friends account and he returns the same money after getting those gifts, is this criteria halal or not?
A: If the transactions are of a permissible nature then the money earned through the referrals will be permissible.
And Allah Ta’ala (الله تعالى) knows best.

Q: What does “permissible nature” mean?
A: In other words, it does not involve any type of work that is doubtful and haraam.
