Question:
He says: What is the ruling on the currency that a seller pays to a buyer as a prize for buying from him? This is widespread in many places in various ways. We ask for clarification of this matter. May Allah reward you with good.

Answer:
These commercial prizes and commercial competitions are all consuming wealth unjustly. They intend by them to increase customers and buyers. They claim there are incentives in them, but they are consuming wealth unjustly. It is not permissible to work with them or take them. Fatwas and decisions have been issued by the Committee of Senior Scholars forbidding these commercial prizes and competitions because they are consuming wealth unjustly and deceiving people. They do not give you the prize from their own money; they take it from people. They take it from people in a hidden way. They do not give it to you from their own money. If they gave it to you from their own money, they would lose. They are winners in any case because they take it from people's money, they increase the price, and they take from people, saying, "We have placed prizes for you."
