Salaam,
A good relative of mine has recently launched a business, but a lot his in-store and online advertisements are of non-hijabi women wearing or using his products. Some of these advertisements don't necessarily show the most modestly clad women even as per non-Muslim standards. It's kind of bugging me because he's a great relative of mine and I'm not sure if I should say something...
Anyway, I just wanted to learn the relevant rules first:
1) Is it halal for a one, for the purposes of advertising, to use posters of women without hijab?
2) Same question as above, but let's say the advertisements are of young women wearing "fitness" clothing or non-professional and relatively revealing clothing than what would normally be seen in society on a normal day-to-day basis at formal or semi-formal settings (e.g. schools, offices, etc.) ?
3) Let's say one doesn't own the business, but is maybe a web-developer and has to set up or facilitate the set up of advertisements of non-hijabi women for their client's business. Would this be halal?
