Question:
Al-Rajhi or any intermediary bank transferring an amount from one country to another, if it is the same trust and the same currency, it is permissible for them to take a fee for the transfer.
Answer:
Regarding the transfer, they take a fee for it. They say that this is not a fee; it is a payment for services, a payment for the books and records. They call it a commission, right? I do not know, by Allah, about this. I do not know. Nothing is taken for the transfer, but if they interpret it in this interpretation, it needs to be looked into. Yes.
