What is the ruling on paying a bribe to clear goods from customs?

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
This questioner says: Is it permissible to pay a bribe to clear my goods from customs?

Answer:
It is not permissible to pay a bribe. May Allah curse the one who offers the bribe, the one who accepts it, and the one who conveys it. So it is not permissible to pay a bribe. Extract your right through the lawful means. Yes.
