Summary
The program is classified as a Multi Level Marketing scheme. Although it does not sell expensive goods, participants simply wait and hope for profit from a network of participants in order to become wealthy quickly. This creates doubt over the profit given by each participant, so the answer cites the hadith to leave what is doubtful for what is not.
Written in our own words from the original fatwa — check the source before acting on it.
Program ini termasuk dalam program Multi Level Marketing.
