Question

I am working online as freelancer and I have to receive payments through moneybookers. Please guide me that using these mediums for receiving payments is allowed as there is no such other ways.

Should I work in a way that no bank is involved and no use of international payment method or it is correct. Please give your answer briefly

Answer

Assalāmu `alaikum Warahmatullāhi Wabrakatuh,

In principle, it is permissible to make use of conventional banks and money bookers for transactions that are Sharī῾ah Compliant.

As an online freelancer, you may use the facilities of moneybookers to receive payments due to you.

And Allah Ta'āla Knows Best,
