Is it considered cheating or a jihad against foreign companies to counterfeit global auto parts brands and sell them at a lower price?
Source: FtawySummary from Ftawy's records · added here Sep 2, 2026
If counterfeit brands are sold as original, it is a forbidden deception and forgery. However, if counterfeit brands are sold with high quality, while being careful not to mislead the buyer into believing they are original brands, then there is no objection to it. The statement that deception and forgery are a form of jihad against foreign companies is false and an embellishment from Satan.
