Is it Islamically permissible to enter into a partnership where the profit distribution is divided into three parts: one-third for the capital (continuing until the full recovery of the capital), one-third for the capital owner, and one-third for the partner providing effort, with an agreement to adjust the profit percentage to half after the recovery of the capital, and to determine a wage for the partner providing effort due to his role as project manager?

To validate the contract, both parties must agree on a specific percentage of the profit for the worker.
