Celcom's "100 days, 100 cars" Contest = Gambling

Celcom is giving away 100 cars in 100 days to all its customers. the offer is very attractive. i think almost all who heard this contest promotion would dream to win them selves a car. but have you ever ponder what is your probability to win the car? alright if you're Maxis or DIGI user then you're out. But still the chance is very small.
What you have to do to win? first register yourself through SMS (youwil be charge RM5). Then register your name (another RM5 charged). then you need to answer all 10 questions correctly (every SMS RM5 X 10 questions = RM50). Wah! you need to spend at least RM60 to enter the contest and stand to win. And i'm very sure that Celcom will also charge you for every SMS they send to you, then you'll need to pay more. I see that Celcom is getting more by giving away 100 cars. and you will loose and not getting anything even to test drive the car.
I checked in the http://www.zaharuddin.net/, ustaz zaharuddin has updated his website about this contest, and in his opinion this contest is simply a gambling and therefore is haram. read out ust zaharuddin comment.
So we as muslim should think again if we want to participate in this contest. Better don't


. And here is the rest of it.
