Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question : Also, some make the condition, for example, that for every thousand, ten are taken.

Answer : If this is the wage of his like, there is no harm. That is, it is not permissible for the imam to say to the collector, "You get ten percent or five percent," on the condition that this is the wage of his like.
