"Giving a tip to an employee to perform his assigned work"
"A customs clearance agent is authorized to place materials in private warehouses until they are cleared, and fees are paid on the materials. Afterwards, the owner of the warehouses gives the employee a tip. Is this haram?"
Answer
I say, and with God's help: This gratuity is usually a bribe paid to the employee to perform their duty, so it is not permissible, and God knows best.
