Is it permissible for a female employee in a beauty and perfume store to take gifts designated for customers from perfume companies without purchasing?
Source: FtawySummary from Ftawy's records · added here Sep 2, 2026
It is not permissible for a perfume shop employee to take free gifts for customers without them purchasing anything. This is considered a violation of the terms set by the company owning the perfumes and the shop, and an appropriation of another's property without their consent. It is also a betrayal of the trust placed in the employee, and a transgression against the command of Allah and His Messenger regarding the safeguarding of trusts and the sanctity of a Muslim's wealth.
