Business and Dealings

Q: Can I give my doordash account (food delivery account) to someone and he do food deliveries and at the end of the week I take my share and give the rest to him, because he's using my account?

Q: I have seen previous questions, about whether purchasing extended warranties which are a separate line item at the time of purchasing a product, are haraam. 

Please advise if it is permissible to sell the same item, at different price points but the higher price point has a longer warranty? The warranty is not a separate line item.

Q: My friend’s father earns commission on selling insurance policies. I have been asked to prepare an accounting system to record all the income and expenses and will be compensated for it. Insurance includes both Islamic and conventional. Will my income be haraam or halaal?

Q: There is a platform where you earn money by engaging with social media—liking and following users on platforms like Instagram, Facebook, and YouTube. Every day, you're given a set number of simple social media tasks (such as following a profile or liking a post), and you're paid for completing them. 

When you first join, you're required to purchase a package—this is often referred to as an "exam" or "activation" package. The size of your daily task quota (and potential earnings) depends on the package you choose. For example, if you buy a package worth around $550, you'll receive 7 tasks per day. More expensive packages generally unlock more tasks and higher daily earnings. 

You can also boost your income through referrals. By inviting others to join CloudBoost, you earn a commission when they sign up and purchase a package. Additionally, when the people you invited start referring others, you earn a percentage of their activity as well—creating a multi-level earning structure. Is this pyramide scheme and therefore haraam?

Q: I am in company who is selling a product for 2300 and I am dealing with the employee of the company. He is telling me to make the invoice for 2400 and after the transaction has been made then give him secretly 100 dollars.  

Is this permissible for me to give secretly? 

Q: Earning halaal wealth using a laptop that was bought with haraam money. If haraam, does the profit money need to be given to that right owner?

Q: I work in a retail store. The owners intentionally mark up products by 50% because they expect customers to negotiate and ask for discounts. The actual intended markup is 20%. 

One day, a customer approached me about a product that had the 50% markup. I knew I had the authority to reduce the price down to the 20% markup. The customer said that if I gave him a discount, he would give me some money personally. I agreed, gave him the discount, and he gave me the money.

Q: I was told that on the day of Qiyaamah we will have to pay for our outstanding debts by giving our good deeds to that person. What if the person we owe money to is a non-Muslim? Will our good deeds go to him? What benefit will he get by getting our good deeds?
