QUESTION: Is it permissible to run a recruitment agency? Can we contact people working in companies and offer them vacancies? I heard from someone that if the employees are currently working we can’t offer them another job, it takes the ruling of selling an item at a lower price after someone else has made an agreement already. Is this true.

ANSWER:
It is not permissible to go to an employee and offer him a job while he is still working for his company as this is like selling over your brother’s transaction which the Prophet salla Allahu alaihi wa salla had prohibited.
