Question:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success. Some of those who make peace between people say that they exert themselves for the sake of making peace between people and reconciling those who are at odds, and they may even travel for that purpose. Is it permissible for them to take a fee for this?

Answer:
No, no fee is taken for making peace except in the case of the debtor to reconcile the relationship between the two parties. Otherwise, the intention behind making peace is the reward and recompense from Allah, and no wage is taken for it.
