Economic activity plays a vital role in creating a prosperous, just, and prosperous society. Islam teaches the economic system of its ummah, based on the values of justice that must be upheld and become the main principle for conducting economic activities. Every economic activity must contain elements of benefit and not mistreatment of oneself and others, so that economic activity can create community welfare equally. Conducting economic activities is not allowed to be done if it contains elements of gharar, maysir, and usury or taking the rights of others by false means. In the Quran letter al-Baqarah: 219 and surat al-Maidah: 90 and 91, it is known that gambling is an abominable act that is forbidden by Islam.

Based on the description above, it can be concluded that.1) Gambling (maisir) is all kinds of games in which there are bets and there is the practice of luck, which makes people who play hope that they will get benefits easily without working hard.2) A Muslim should not use gambling as a means of entertainment and leisure, just as he should not use it as a means of earning a living in any situation.3) The practice of online gambling is a form of economic activity that is contrary because it is a game that has a negative impact on the perpetrator and society.4) Prevention of gambling practices (maisir) is by applying the rule of law to create a deterrent effect for the perpetrator.

To address the issue of gambling practices in modern economic activities, a multi-faceted approach is necessary. Firstly, there is a need to raise awareness among the general public about the negative impacts of gambling, both on individuals and society. This can be done through educational campaigns and initiatives that highlight the potential harm and encourage responsible behavior. Secondly, it is crucial to strengthen the enforcement of existing laws and regulations related to gambling. This includes ensuring that providers of gambling products adhere to strict guidelines to prevent consumer losses and that the government and authorities remain vigilant in their efforts to eradicate gambling in Indonesia. Lastly, it is essential to explore alternative forms of entertainment and recreation that promote healthy and productive activities, especially for those who are vulnerable to the allure of gambling. By combining these strategies, we can work towards creating a society that values economic prosperity while minimizing the negative consequences associated with gambling practices.
