Is it permissible for an accountant to take a sum of money from the company's clients after consulting the manager and agreeing upon the price?

1 min readAlso available in العربية

If the company is governmental, its employees are not permitted to accept any financial or in-kind compensation from contractors dealing with it, because this is considered among the gifts given to workers.

However, if the company is private, an employee may accept a commission or gifts from customers, provided that the owner of the company or the authorized manager gives permission, and the customer agrees to it. Otherwise, it is not permissible.
