The Shaykh:
Is this suitable for materials.
The questioner:
I supply raw materials, meaning I sell them to the factories. So one of the managers at a factory said to me: I will restrict to you all the raw materials the factory needs, and no one will sell them to us except you, but on the condition that you give me a percentage of the profits from every transaction. Is that permissible?
The Shaykh:
No, that is not permissible. Because this is considered similar to a bribe, or a bribe.
