Egypt's Dar Al-Ifta

Accepting compensation

Question

no. 1338 for the year 2006 which includes a question on the ruling for accepting compensation.

Answer

It is permissible to accept compensation, known as 'awad. There is no prohibition in this as long as the compensation is equal to or less than the compensated object. Forgoing compensation or part of it, which is better, does not render taking it prohibited. Allah the Almighty knows best.
