Question

Asalaamualaikum

I would like to know if a person has formulated a diet for example and its sold online by the one who formulated it for x amount per month. Once payment is received, an eating plan is sent to you. My question is can I share those diet plan sheets with my family and friends if they ask me.

Shukran

Answer

Respected Brother

Our response to your query is as follows:

Once you have paid for the eating plan and taken ownership of it, it belongs to you.

Thus, you may share the diet plan sheets with family and friends as you wish.
