Answer:<\/u><\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Starting a business is a good and Halal way to earn money as long as it is done in the Halal way. Our beloved prophet (SAW) worked for Khadeejah who had a business. There are various Hadeeths where he would go into the markets and transact etc. as mentioned in the Hadeeth.<\/span><\/p>\n

Our beloved prophet (SAW) went to the prayer location and saw people trading. He exclaimed, “O merchants!” They answered by craning their necks and looking up at Allah’s Messenger (SAW). “On the Day of Resurrection, the merchants will be raised as evildoers, aside from those who fear Allah and are truthful and honest,” he stated. [Tirmidhi Hadeeth no. 1210]<\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

So from all this being said, it shows that starting a business is permissible, and can be rewarding as well if everything is done in the Halal way and no evil\/sin and Haram is sold or serviced.<\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

\u0648\u064e\u0644\u064e\u0627 \u062a\u064e\u0639\u064e\u0627\u0648\u064e\u0646\u064f\u0648\u0627 \u0639\u064e\u0644\u064e\u0649 \u0627\u0644\u0652\u0625\u0650\u062b\u0652\u0645\u0650 \u0648\u064e\u0627\u0644\u0652\u0639\u064f\u062f\u0652\u0648\u064e\u0627\u0646\u0650 \u06da \u0648\u064e\u0627\u062a\u0651\u064e\u0642\u064f\u0648\u0627 \u0627\u0644\u0644\u0651\u064e\u0647\u064e \u06d6 \u0625\u0650\u0646\u0651\u064e \u0627\u0644\u0644\u0651\u064e\u0647\u064e \u0634\u064e\u062f\u0650\u064a\u062f\u064f \u0627\u0644\u0652\u0639\u0650\u0642\u064e\u0627\u0628\u0650<\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Do not join in sin or hostility. And be afraid of Allah; surely, Allah is harsh in punishment. [Surah Mai\u2019dah verse 2]<\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

So buying a massage parlor franchise would be permissible as long as the franchise abstains from Haram e.g. male massaging females (and vice versa), not exposing Awrah (unless a necessity or medical issue), etc.<\/span><\/p>\n
