What is the ruling on changing invoice dates to obtain a higher commission percentage?
Source: FtawySummary from Ftawy's records · added here Sep 2, 2026
It is not permissible to change invoice dates, as this constitutes forgery and prohibited lying. The inability to obtain a motivational bonus or the company's lack of appreciation for outstanding employees does not make it permissible. What is obtained through this method is not lawful, and it must be returned to the company.
