Profit Health Through a Live Gaming Channel

Question
A young man created a live gaming channel on YouTube to benefit from it. What is the ruling on the financial income generated from this channel?
Answer
I say, and with God's help: playing in it is prohibited by Sharia; because it is a distraction and a waste of time and diverts from the path of God Almighty, so the profit gained from it is impure and must be given in charity, and God knows best.
