Many days ago, I sent a question to you, which is not answered until now. Please tell me if u received it or not, because I am waiting now for a month for it, before I tried it in German, but nothing happened. Here is the question again. I discovered, that if I sell something by ebay, there is on my ebay article side directly under ‘payment options’ an advertisement for interest (advertisement of a bank for loans with interest). Since ALLAH hates interest and has forbidden it, my question is the following. In this case, is it allowed anyhow to sell by ebay? Because of uploading my articles, I allure customers on my ebay account. So I call the customers attention to this advertisement too. Or am I innocent, because ebay turns it up against my will? Asking ebay to remove this advertising was of no avail. This question is a further attempt to get an answer. I have been trying, about four times, to get an answer from islamweb German department for this question since many month, but till today without any response. So I asked somebody to translate my question in English. I do not want to be impatient or ill mannered, but I hope for an early answer, because this is an urgent question and I do not want to act without being sure if it is halal or not.

All perfect praise be to Allaah, The Lord of the Worlds. I testify that there is none worthy of worship except Allaah, and that Muhammad, sallallaahu ‘alayhi wa sallam, is His Slave and Messenger.

As long as the stated advertisement of the website is not related to you or to your advertisement and it is just put on the page of the website, then there is no blame on you because of it; because your relationship with the website is lawful, then there is no blame on you regarding advertising on it.

Allaah Knows best.
