What is the ruling on brokerage between the seller and the buyer?

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
This is a question about the broker who acts between the seller and the buyer and takes a fee.

Answer:
Yes, there is nothing wrong with it. A person may act as a broker between the seller and the buyer, working to bring them together, and he is entitled to a wage for his work and effort. There is no objection to this, for it is a benefit to all parties. This is especially true in the field of real estate, whether it is real estate or anything else. It is permissible to employ a broker, and it is permissible for him to be paid a wage for his trouble.
