| Apr 24, 2019 at 6:52 | comment | added | Najeeb | The statement "The commission may reach tens of thousands, whilst the product is not worth more than a few hundred" <- This is absolutely ridiculous. I can use the same logic: a celebrity endorser is paid a huge amount to promote a product and this is a lot more than the actual unit cost of the product. So does that make the product haraam? Examples could be: a celebrity endorsing a health drink. While the per bottle cost of the drink in this case may be a couple of dollars, the celebrity endorser is paid a lot more than that. Ergo, applying this fatwa would make the health drink haraam. | |
