Assalamu 'aleikum warahmatullahi,

dear brother and sisters, my question is simple, Is NeoBux Halal or Haram? I'm about to get involved in this site and i wish someone with knowladge could help me trying to understand if this method of winning money online without gambling is Halal or Haram. I'm counting on your help. I'll leave the site as well for you to check,

well it seems i can't post the site so you just go to google explorer and type neobux
Thank you for your attention,

Assalamu 'aleikum warahmatullahi.

Wa Alaykum Salam,

The scheme or method used by them is not gambling nor is it interest based so the income in general would be Halaal. Don't stop reading here...

However, if the adverts are Haraam in contents such as gambling sites, dating sites etc or requires or promotes/invites towards Haraam activities or viewing of images/videos etc then it should be avoided.

For any specific cases or rulings, please ask in the Q&A section www.muftisays.com/qa/askmufti/

Wassalam

I'm not a scholar, but I reckon you should stay away from it. When something is too good to be true and is not part of the Deen, Stay away from it.

There are things that are Halal and there are things that are Haram, and in between there are many doubtful things. The safest option is to stay away from the doubtful things. (This is from a Hadith)

Below is From Neobox Stats. To good to be true, surely you can get your money other ways. I think you will be sitting at the PC all day& not concentrate on the work you are being paid to do. (If you are employed)

For many valid reasons, we do not share our internal statistics.
It's of our best interest to keep some things private for business and / or legal reasons.
But there are a few that you've always wondered and now you'll know.
Below you'll find some facts and figures that NeoBux has made throughout its life. All of these have been made according to our own records being them internal or by third-party monitoring software.
Hope you enjoy satisfying a bit of your curiosity.

Assalaamu Alaikum.

I am informed by a friend about Neobux. as far i am concerned to to earn even a penny as halal. so it is my question that whether the source of money Neobux paying is Haram/halal. if they want us to click on a website to just show the website owner that they have got this much traffic on their website by Search Engine Optimization of NeoBux; the payment NeoBux charges from the website owner for SEO will be Haram. and of course only from that revenue NeoBux going to pay the members.
