Is it permissible for an employee to receive a commission in his capacity as an agent for a company that sells computers, with the purchasing company's knowledge, given that the price of the devices will not change whether through his mediation or not?

1 min readAlso available in العربية

It is permissible to act as an intermediary between a seller and a buyer, which is known as brokering (simsarah), and it is permissible to take a fee for it. Your work as an agent for a computer company, from which you receive a commission for your sales, falls under this category. It is permissible for a broker to take a commission from both parties, the seller and the buyer. Your position at the purchasing company does not affect your entitlement to a commission from the other company, unless you violate the terms of your contract with either party.
