participating in televised game shows
Assalaamu Alaikum.
My question is in relation to participating in televised game shows where money is the prize. This specific game show involves getting asked a trivia question and being offered a multiple choice answer on which u place money on the answer u think is correct. The correct answer is revealed and you get to keep the money that you placed on the correct answer. Is this a form of gambling or is it permissable?
Jazakallah.

Contemporary Ulama have differed on the issue of using the Television as a medium for the propagation of Dien.
Bearing the above in mind, if the participant does not have to contribute to participate in the game then it will not be gambling.
And Allah Ta'ala knows best
