Is it permissible to use the subscription fees collected from customers (10 Riyals per member) in a hotel, resort, and chalet booking project, to operate other projects, knowing that the contract duration is 3 years and 10% of the remaining balance is deducted as administrative fees if the customer wishes to reclaim what has not been used?
The ruling on the transaction depends on the nature of the amounts collected from the subscribers, whether they are subscription fees, service charges, or payments for benefits. The use of these funds in a project depends on the purpose for which they were collected; if they are a deposit, it is not permissible to dispose of them without permission.
