Q I want to ask about working with the Amazon website as a marketer, for commission. Amazon – as is well known – is a huge website that sells everything that you could think of. I mean that there are millions of products, and the website has programs that are called marketing for commission. You can register for free, then choose the products that you want to market, which is done by promoting the link to the product. Then if anyone who enters the website through your link buys the product, you get commission, which is a percentage of the price of the product. Similarly, there is something called cookies; a cookie is a file that is loaded onto the computer of the customer or visitor who enters the site via your link as soon as he enters the website. This file lasts for twenty-four hours; if he buys any other product during that twenty-four hours, you also get commission for it, but if he enters through the link of another marketer, then that marketer is the one who gets the commission. In other words, the purchase will be to the credit of the last marketer through whose link he entered the website. Is working as a marketer for this website permissible, even though it sells everything, permissible or otherwise? There are also some unacceptable images, such as images of women, on this website. Does working with them come under the heading of helping in misdeeds? Also, with regard to the cookies, if the customer purchases another product, other than what I promoted to him, and this product is not permissible, as it involves some element of haram, and I get the commission automatically, is there any sin on me for that, even though it is highly unlikely that he would buy something else and that it would be haram? But if that happens, should I give the commission for that particular item in charity, or is it not permissible for me to work with them at all?
