Dealing with non-Muslims in buying and selling with exploitation
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Fatwa number ( 20175 )
Q: I work in a food establishment, and some non-Muslim foreigners come to us, and the bill for their food is doubled for them. Is that permissible?
A: A disbeliever is treated in buying and selling like any other Muslim: with honesty toward him and without deceiving him, and this includes not increasing the price for him. This does not mean loving him or being affectionate toward him; rather, it is obligatory to hate him for the sake of Allah, for that is one of the strongest ties of faith. And Allah is the One to be sought for aid. And success is from Allah, and may Allah send prayers and blessings upon our Prophet Muhammad, his family, and his Companions.
