The reason for the prohibition of a merchant guaranteeing the profit of partners
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
He says: Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success, what is the reason that makes this transaction forbidden, which is when the merchant guarantees the profit of the partners?
Answer:
The reason is that he may not obtain the amount he invested, which would result in him being defrauded, or the profit may be large but he pays only a small amount, which would result in the partners being defrauded. So the Shari'ah made it a shared portion of the profit, so that the loss is borne by all and the increase is for the partner. This is justice. Yes.
