Dought clear - Is it permissible to make phone apps to sell Islamic
information? For example, the iPhone mobile phone has a number of apps
that are sold via the Apple company, such as the electronic Mushaf,
Saheeh al-Bukhaari, Saheeh Muslim, and so on. I would like to make
apps like these, that dealwith the Qur'an and Prophet's hadeeths, for
the iPhone and iPad, and upload them to the App Store as unique apps.
Praise be to Allah.
Striving to spread knowledge and the Qur'an is a great good deed, and
making use ofmodern technology to do that is one of the bestand
greatest good deeds, if a person does itseeking to please Allah,
especially nowadays when followers of whims and desires and the people
of kufr, hypocrisy and division are hastening to spread evil,
immorality, shirk and kufr, and everythingthat angers Allah, may He be
exalted, via electronic means by using the highest levels of modern
technology that mankind has attained.
Making these Islamic apps that contain nothing that is contrary to the
teaching of Islam, rather they are aimed at spreading the religion
ofAllah, and teaching Qur'an and hadeeth, is a great and blessed good
deed, if you do it sincerely for the sake of Allah and with the right
intention, whilst strivingto do your work well and referring it to a
committee of specialists in the field in which you are making the app
(Qur'an, hadeeth, and so on), for them to check it from an academic
point of view and to make sure that it is free of errors.
There is also nothing wrong with you selling it to people via this
electronic seller (the AppStore).
