Question
For certifying fund-collectors, some Madaaris charge 100 rupees. They issue a certificate to authenticate the fund-collector. Is this charge permissible?
Answer
The certificates are generally fake. The Madaaris who issue such papers and charge fees for it are guilty of khiyaanat. It is haraam to charge fees for even a genuine certificate of recommendation. It is a practice of kuffaar lawyers. It does not cost Rs.100 to write out a few lines. The justification for charging this amount is baseless. It is a haraam money-making process. Even if the collector is a bogus, for the sake of the fee they will issue a certificate.
