Question:
May Allah reward you, Your Eminence, father. The questioner asks: Is commercial dealing with disbelievers considered a form of loyalty and compromise?
Answer:
No, commercial dealing is a worldly interest that Allah has made permissible. It is permissible to deal with a disbeliever in buying and selling. The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) bought food from the Jews. It is permissible to buy from disbelievers and to sell to them. This is not a matter of religion; it is a matter of transaction and seeking a livelihood. Yes.
