Can I keep commission when buying tickets for friends, known persons, and neighbors in cash?

Answered as per Hanafi Fiqh by Darulifta-Deoband.com
I am working in air travel agency on salary basis, but I get some customers who are my friends, some known persons, neighbour etc who buy tickets on cash basis, I get discount from our agency but I keep that discount without giving to them. Can I keep this commission? Is it allowed for me? Is it haram or halal? Please advice.

Answer

(Fatwa: 162/162/M=1433)

The discount that the agency provides on buying cash ticket if it is for the person who is buying the ticket then it is a treachery to keep it with you without their permission. It is not lawful to do so, that amount is lawful for you.
