Question

Assalamualaikum,

There are a few genuine online survey sites that pay users for answering the surveys like rating a product, answering personal questions, etc... If I refer people to those sites and they signup through me then I will get a small commission... Is this halal or not?

Answer 1

Ref. No. 2112/44-2187

In the name of Allah the most Gracious the most Merciful

The answer to your question is as follows:

The money, you receive for answering the survey from the company is halal, and the commission you get for referring is also halal for you. You are directly involved in both of them and are working hard, therefore this amount is halal. However, if you get money in any other way, explain it and post your question again in details.

And Allah knows best
