Is dealing with government projects through direct purchase or direct assignment, which involves invitations to certain individuals, influence from those in positions of power, and personal demands such as partnership or a percentage, considered Islamically permissible, or does it fall under the ruling of bribery, knowing that the person does not receive any money until after the award and completion of works? And what is the ruling on requesting partnership by paying a sum of money or providing liquidity?

No one is permitted to interfere in government tenders to ensure they are awarded to a specific person, as this involves deception and betrayal. Any money obtained this way is ill-gotten (suht) and forbidden. If the intermediary has a direct connection to the awarding of the tender, this is even more prohibited, and what they take is a forbidden bribe. It is not permissible to make such a person a partner, as this leads to forbidden acts. The widespread phenomenon of bribery and manipulation in tenders is one of the greatest causes of corruption. The Prophet, peace and blessings be upon him, cursed the briber, the bribed, and the intermediary. The act described, where an individual pays money to secure projects, is a forbidden bribe. Accepting the contract on this basis is not permissible, as it constitutes cooperation in sin and aggression, and consuming wealth unlawfully.
