Re: Concept of Halal Casino

Not really, conventional bank is haram in Islam, but if the bank is using Islamic name e.g. sharia and then they claimed to not offering interest rate, actually it's legal. Do you want to say Sharia bank is haram? you will get mocked and bullied by Muslims Tongue

Haram is haram. There is no other excuse. Taking interest in return for the money lent is not allowed. No matter what Sharia bank or Islami bank calls it. Most of them call it as service charge, or whatever, it's haram. I am Muslim myself and I know it's Haram. If some bullies me because of that, I will take that. In case they can teach me something new.

If someone open a bar a of vodka in the name of Islam, it won't become halam vodka. If people say Bismillah before they drink vodka, it won't become a halal drink. Real practicing Muslims won't debate regarding these things. They will say I said what I had to. No need to spread Fitna.

You are right, I am also a Muslim and taking interest is forbidden in Islam according to Sharia. Some scholars argue that Islamic banks are halal. How can this be, I don't believe it, well, how is Islami Bank surviving? Of course, they receive interest on loans. According to some scholars, some people consider it halal to earn interest by keeping money in Islamic banks. Islamic banks, however, give interest on a certain amount of money. Islami bank is haram even if it is named according to Shariah.

Something that is haram is haram. Nothing can change it. And those who already know that it is haram will not approach it. But until now, many people still gamble, and they have their own reasons. We cannot prevent them from continuing to gamble even though it is clear in religion that gambling is haram or prohibited because they do it without coercion.

But for anyone who has sinned, he is still allowed to do good. Those who have committed sins must repent and not repeat sins, even though some still repeat other sins. And no perfect human can be clean from sin, and that is why we humans are required to repent to cleanse the sins we have committed.
