In Islam Gambling in Horse Racing , Camel Racing and Archery is Halal so that is why we see Horse Racing , Camel Racing in Saudia and in UAE without any problem . It is a bit Hypocritical that Gambling in Arabic Sports is allowed whereas Gambling is Haraam in Non Arabic Sports in Islam but anyway Pakistan do have good Horse Breeds and being an Islamic Country we could generate huge business as well and We could Promote Horse Racing with good Breeds as a Sports with Legal Betting and Waging here..Recommend
