Question:
Respected Mufti Sahib
At Game Stores, the staff offer customers to buy in their name as they get staff discounts, then after you purchase the item, the staff ask for a payment on top.
As an example, an item is K45,000.
The staff price is K32,000.
Once the staff buys it, you get a receipt and then the staff demands K5,000.
Is this transaction allowed?
Answer:
In the Name of Allah, the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful.
As-salāmu ‘alaykum wa-rahmatullāhi wa-barakātuh.
It is not permissible for the staff to purchase items for the customer and receive a commission if Game Stores does not permit the staff to purchase for the customers.
And Allah Ta’āla Knows Best
