Forever Living (FLP): Is It A Halal Business?
I know this business Forever living products (FLP) business model seems halal but it is not The product is halal And if you buy the product and then sell it, is also permissible But they initially want money (~38k) to buy the product and complete 2CC.(2CC is minimum requirements for getting frenchisee) after that, what you do with the product that is not there headache/concern. then they want from you to join new persons so that they also buys the product and complete his/her 2CC and his/her joining commision will be given to you Now the problem here is 1) any one who is joining the company/franchisee is not joining becouse of the product but his (niat) is to initiate the commission he will get from new joinee The more you join more you will earn commission 2) the product is not useful (it’s just useless) 3) after completing 2cc you just need the manage the team on WhatsApp or any chat platform and you will get the money in your account passively. (Without any effort ) [Remember: Assuming WhatsApp management is not effort. ] many people think that the product and company have halal certificate then why not FLP Simple answer: Becouse of this business model only In islam you not only see the product is halal or haram also we need to consider the way of earning At the end I will say Allahu alam May Allah forgive me if I am wrong (aameen)
