What is the term for gambling, explicitly prohibited within Islamic teachings?

Explanation

– Maysir refers to gambling or games of pure chance, explicitly prohibited within Islamic teachings due to its association with unjust financial gain and potential social harm.
– The Quran groups this prohibition alongside intoxicants in Surah Al-Ma’idah, verse 90, describing both as impure works of Satan to be avoided entirely.
– For exams, remember that this prohibition extends broadly to modern forms of speculative and chance-based financial activities as well.
