Is it permissible to pay a person 1000 Algerian Dinars monthly in exchange for them bringing a company that rents out tillage machinery and tractors?

1 min readAlso available in العربية

It is not permissible to stipulate a specific amount for each month in exchange for searching for a tenant, due to the ignorance (uncertainty) regarding the rent. This is because the lease contract may last for one month or for years, which makes the rent unknown. The majority of jurists stipulate that the brokerage fee must be known. Therefore, this transaction is not permissible. If it occurs, the worker is entitled to the customary wage (اجرة المثل) for his search for the leasing party.
