Question

Is custom duty at airports permissible? My son is planing to ask someone to bring two laptops from US to Saudia.

Answer

This duty is not recognized in the shari`ah.

And Allah Ta'ala (الله تعالى) knows best.

Ask Mufti Online

Fatawa SA is an independent, read-only index of fatawa already published by Mufti Online — Madrasah Ta'leemuddeen. It is not a fatwa service. For your own situation, ask the issuing Darul Ifta directly.
