Q: Kaashif is the business owner and Kamran is the investor who invested $500 and Usman is the person who refers and brought Kamran to invest in Kashif’s business, and in return Kashif gives bonus 20% percent of invested money to Usman which is $50, and it does not affect on Kamran’s shares and profit. So my question is that such kind of bonus or commission which is given by Kashif to Usmaan is Halaal?
A: It is permissible for Kaashif to pay Usmaan a commission.
And Allah Ta’ala (الله تعالى) knows best.
