You are right if "going offshore" means physically moving somewhere. Just buying (say) a domain and hosting abroad would not move the jurisdiction's laws "offshore". Ask coin.mx guys if don't believe me...
The problem is if you are running a business without money transmission license you can be prosecuted for money laundering and that is what happened with the coin.mx guys
being Mulsim and living in a muslim coountry owning casino is not almost possible, as still there are a number of people who are running casino illegally but still if they caught by the police they will be put in jail.
In Muslim countries all forms of gambling and lottery are considered as forbidden and illegal and if caught you might get into serious trouble,even in Dubai which has one of the most lenient laws when you compare all the Muslim countries and if they find you involved in illegal gambling you can face up to 2 years in prison and may be accompanied by a fine of Dh 20,000.
