What is the ruling on accepting an offer from a non-pharmacist to register the pharmacy in the pharmacist's name in exchange for a monthly salary, knowing that the pharmacist is aware that the syndicate prohibits this, and that he must take an oath that he is solely and ultimately responsible, financially, for the pharmacy, and the non-pharmacist suggests that the pharmacist pay an amount towards the cost of equipping the pharmacy and then recover the amount after taking the oath?

This offer, named "," is deception, trickery, and fraud, and it is not permissible to engage in it, because the Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings be upon him, said: "Whoever cheats is not one of us," narrated by Muslim. And in Ibn Hibban: "Whoever deceives us is not one of us, and scheming and deception are in the Hellfire."
