Is it permissible to take a fee for reviewing and correcting a contract between a Muslim and a Bank?

Answered as per Hanafi Fiqh by Darulifta-Deoband.com
Assalamu Alaicum Warahmatullah 1- Is it permissible for a Muslim adviser to review and correct a contract made between his client (Muslim) and the bank (Aqd ijaarah). Will it be permissible for this adviser to take a fee for the corrections made in favour of the client? 2- Is the income of a Bank Haraam? is it permissible to sell a car or shop to a Bank?

Answer

(Fatwa: 1065/903=D/1430)

What is the nature of the contract between the client and bank? If it consists of interest-based transaction, it will be sinful to work as advisor and the charge of sinful act is also not lawful. But, if the agreement is of any other kind, explain it and submit the question again.

(2) What do you mean by bank income i.e. the income of a bank employee or something else? If you mean the same, what are jobs assigned to be discharged?

(3) It is lawful to sell a car or a shop to bank.
