00:00Sajjad Abbas from Riyadh has asked, what is it like to make a bet?

00:05Remember, he has asked a very short question, what does it mean to make a bet?

00:10If it means betting on someone's defeat or victory,

00:15or saying that if this person is right, I will give this much money,

00:21and if this person is not right, then you will give this much money,

00:25or if it is a bet on victory or defeat,

00:29or if I lose, I will give this much money, and if you lose, you will give this much money.

00:34If it means betting on someone's defeat or victory,

00:38then betting on someone's defeat or defeat is Qimaar, Jua, Sharan Haram, and it is unlawful.

00:43In this way, if you play cricket, football, or any other sport,

00:48if a two-sided bet is made, then it is Sharan Qimaar and it is unlawful.

00:52It is necessary to object to this.

00:54In the Holy Qur'an, the word Ma'isir has been mentioned.

01:02What has been said?

01:03That this is an evil deed, a satanic deed.

01:05Stop it.

01:06Yes, keep one thing in mind, that if it is a one-sided bet,

01:10that is, if it is from one side, then it is permissible.

01:12What does it mean?

01:13If you win, then I will give you money,

01:17but if it is from your side, there is no such thing.

01:21If it is only from one side, then it is permissible.

01:24In the same way, if not from two players,

01:27but from a third person,

01:29that whoever wins from you, I will give him this reward.

01:32If a third party says the same thing, then it is also permissible.

01:36By including it in the reward, it has been declared permissible.

01:40But as far as a two-sided bet is concerned,

01:43it is unlawful and it is necessary to avoid it.
