Drop shipping but with certain Violations

Everyday Islamic Finance Business and Career Questions
#1

Many Muslims are doing a drop shipping model where they make a listing on amazon and fulfill the order by ordering on the seller behalf from a retailer like Walmart, Costco or Sam’s Club. Retailers like Walmart and others have stated that this is against their terms and policies and so has Amazon. Therefore is this model haram? Does breaking the terms and conditions of a seller platform or a store make the business haram.

Jazak Allah,

May Allah bless you.

According to the meaning of a hadith narrated in Tirmidhi, it is said that the Muslims are held by their conditions, except those conditions that make the lawful unlawful, or the unlawful lawful.
Based on the above, Muslims should not engage in this sort of model that you have mentioned.

And Allah knows best!
