Is it permissible for the husband to accept a percentage of the profit or wages from contractors transporting goods that he supervises for export?
It is permissible for one of the transporters to reduce the price for the factory in exchange for being authorized to transport, provided that this percentage is returned to the factory. The export official is not allowed to take it for himself, because it is considered a bribe. To confirm this, if he had stayed in his father's house, that percentage would not have come to him. One must remember the Prophet's (peace and blessings be upon him) hadith regarding gifts to workers: "Why did he not sit in the house of his father or the house of his mother and see if he would be given gifts or not?"
