[Q 742] Is Income from Kids’ Rhymes and Faceless YouTube Channels Halal?

Answer

Whether income earned from YouTube is halal or haram depends on the content presented on the channel and the method by which the income is obtained.

If children’s rhymes or other videos do not contain impermissible matters, vulgar speech, music, or other unlawful things, then operating such a channel is permissible. And if the income is received in the form of permissible advertisements, then it will also be permissible.

However, the common method currently prevalent, in which all types of advertisements – permissible and impermissible – appear, is prohibited by the esteemed scholars.
