Question:
May Allah reward you. We received this question from Abu 'Abdullah, who says: We are partners in a commercial establishment, and an error occurred in the accounts. We agreed to bring in an accountant to identify the discrepancy, and the one who made the error would be responsible for the accountant's fee. Is this arrangement valid?
Answer:
Yes, if you agree to that, and you disagree and bring in an accountant to show you the correct accounting, this accountant does not come except for a fee, and you pay him his right. Yes.
