Selling counterfeit, duplicate and fake clothes, materials and things

 Is it allowed to work in company or shop which sells fake, counterfeit and duplicate material, things and clothes by copying logos, brand names of branded products


It is not permissible to sell counterfeit goods claiming that they are original, and it is not permissible to deal in them or distribute them to shops, because that comes under the heading of deceiving the people, lying and defrauding them… and because that comes under the heading of cooperating in sin and transgression, and consuming people’s wealth unlawfully. Allah, may He be exalted, says (interpretation of the meaning):

{do not cooperate in sin and transgression} [al-Maa’idah 5:2]

{And do not consume one another's wealth unjustly} [al-Baqarah 2:188].

Moreover, that also causes harm to those who sell the original, non-counterfeit goods, and is competing unlawfully with them.
