Paying a bribe to bring in one's wife and children

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success. A Muslim man from an Arab country says: He wants to bring his wife and children to him, but he will not be able to do so unless he pays a sum of money as a bribe. Is it permissible for him to do that?

Answer:
He has to go back to the officials, he should follow up, and may Allah make his matter easy, and he must not pay the bribe. Yes.
