Ruling on taking money from a non-Muslim in exchange for opening the shop in his name

Question:
What is the ruling on one who takes a fee of ten thousand riyals from a non-Muslim in exchange for the shop being in his name?

Answer:
I do not know of any basis for this; it is a lie. If he has no work, is not a partner, and is not sharing in the partnership with him, but is merely lying, then this has no basis, and this money is not permissible. However, if the partnership is in halves, thirds, or quarters, and it is called by his name in selling, buying, bringing in goods, and the like, or in performing other works under the category of partnership, then there is no harm.

Question : Meaning, are they the tailors now who sew clothes, where the shop is in the name of one Saudi, because non-Muslims are prohibited from doing so, and the non-Muslims are the ones who pay the shop owner and practice tailoring, and so on with the activity?

Answer: If he is a partner with him, there is no harm. But if it is a lie, and the government has prohibited this thing, and they make it a lie and a trick, it is not permissible. Lying is not permissible, except if the state ordered them to put it in the name of this person, and if it is with the permission of the state for an interest that the state sees, then there is no harm.
