The Reader's Digest has been offering me participation in numerous contests as I was/am a regular purchaser of their publications. The prizes are in cash and/or kind. Can I enter such contest?

It is permissible to enter in such contests and accept the prices if one is not required to pay a separate fee to be a participant of the contest. and Allah Ta'ala Knows Best for: Mufti Ebrahim Desai FATWA DEPT. CHECKED AND APPROVED: Moulana Imraan Vawda
