Selling of blank CD's with printing done onto it? Can I to customers requiring christmas or birthday greetings printed on the CD
Question
I intend selling CD's whereby I print a thermal or ink printing on the top of the CD. The contents of the CD are blank and the customer records on their own. Am I allowed to sell to people wanting christmas or birthday greetings or wedding invitations to be printed on them?
Answer
It is permissible for you to print on the C.D only those issues that are not against Shariah. To print Christmas greetings on a C.D is not permissible.
