The answer

The Shari'ah has not specified a particular profit margin in trade; the criterion is the mutual consent of both parties. However, exploiting people's needs is reprehensible. It is desirable to consider people's circumstances and not exploit their needs, as stated in the resolution of the Islamic Fiqh Academy in Jeddah.
