Esta sociedade é uma associação de dois corpos com a propriedade de um terceiro, a saber, uma pessoa entrega o seu bem a duas pessoas ou mais como Mudharaba, de modo que os dois mudharibs são sócios nos lucros através do bem de outra pessoa. Podem concordar em dividir os lucros em terços, sendo um terço para cada mudharib e um terço para o proprietário. Também podem concordar em dividi-los em quartos, em que o bem fica com um quarto, um dos mudharibs fica com um quarto e o outro fica com a metade. Ou podem acordar condições diferentes destas, de modo que é possível haver partilhas preferenciais dos lucros entre os dois trabalhadores. A sua pretensão a partilhas preferenciais dos lucros baseia-se na reputação (Wajaha) de um ou de ambos, quer em relação à sua profissão no trabalho, quer às suas competências na disposição e gestão, apesar de o direito de disposição que possuem sobre o bem ser igual. Esta sociedade é, portanto, diferente da sociedade de Mudharaba, embora, na realidade, acabe por reverter para a Mudharaba.

This company is an association of two bodies with the property of a third, namely a person gives his property to two persons or more as a Mudharaba, so the two mudharibs are partners in the profit through the property of another person. They may agree to divide the profit in thirds, to each mudharib a third and to the owner a third. They may also agree to divide it in fourths, where the property takes a fourth, one of the mudharibs takes a fourth and the other takes a half. Or they may agree on conditions other than these so that it is possible that there are preferential shares of the profit between the two workers. Their claim to preferential shares of profit is based on the reputation (Wajaha) of one or of both of them, whether in regard of their profession in work or of their skills in disposal and management, despite the fact that the right of disposal they have in the property is equal. This company is therefore different from the company of Mudharaba, although in reality it reverts to Mudharaba.

Entre as sociedades de Wujooh está quando duas ou mais pessoas se associam na compra de mercadorias, utilizando a confiança que os comerciantes depositam nelas e a reputação baseada nessa confiança, sem possuírem bens próprios. Concordam que a propriedade dos bens comprados lhes pertence em metades, terços, quartos ou partes semelhantes, e vendem esses bens. O lucro que obtêm é dividido entre eles em metades, terços, quartos ou da forma que acordarem, e não com base no acordo anterior sobre a parte de cada um na propriedade. No entanto, a perda é repartida na proporção das suas partes nos bens comprados, pois essas partes representam a sua propriedade, e não de acordo com o que possam ter combinado quanto à perda, nem segundo a sua parte no lucro, quer o lucro tenha sido dividido entre eles de acordo com o valor das suas compras, quer não.

Among the companies of Wujooh is when two or more persons associate in what they buy using the trust of merchants in them, and the reputation that is based on this trust, without having property. They would agree that the property they bought is owned by them in halves or thirds or fourths or the like, and they sell that property. What they gain of profit is divided between them in halves, thirds or fourths or whatever else they agree, and not based on the previous agreement of the share of ownership. However, the loss is in proportion of their shares of the purchased goods, because these shares represent their property and not according to what they may agree about the loss, nor according to their share of the profit, whether the profit was divided between them according to the value of their purchases or otherwise.

Assim, a sociedade de Wujooh, em suas duas formas, é permitida. Isso ocorre porque, se os sócios associam o capital de outra pessoa, ela se assemelha à sociedade de Mudharaba, que é confirmada pela Sunnah e pelo Ijma'. Se, porém, associam aquilo que obtêm do capital de outra pessoa, comprando mercadorias por meio de sua reputação e da confiança que os comerciantes depositam neles, então ela se assemelha à sociedade de Abdan, que também é confirmada pela Sunnah. Assim, a sociedade de Wujooh é confirmada pela Sunnah e pelo Ijma'.

Thus the company of the Wujooh with its two forms is allowed. This is because if the partners associated with the property of another person it is like the Mudharaba company, which is confirmed by the Sunnah and Ijma’a. If, however they associated with what they take from the property of another person, by buying goods through their reputation and the trust of the merchants in them, then it is like the company of Abdan, which is also confirmed by the Sunnah. The company of Wujooh is thus confirmed by the Sunnah and Ijma’a.

Contudo, é necessário saber o que se entende por confiança neste contexto. Quando se menciona a confiança nos assuntos de comércio, de sociedades e afins, refere-se à confiança no pagamento, que é a confiança financeira, e não à notoriedade nem à estima. Assim, uma pessoa pode ser notável e, ainda assim, não ser confiável para pagar; nesse caso, não possui confiança financeira e, portanto, não há confiança nela no âmbito do comércio e da sociedade. Pode ser um ministro, um homem rico ou um grande comerciante, mas, se não for confiável para pagar, não há nele confiança financeira nem confiança em coisa alguma. Logo, não pode comprar mercadorias no mercado sem pagar o seu preço. Já uma pessoa pobre pode, se os comerciantes confiarem em que pagará as suas dívidas, comprar mercadorias sem pagar o preço de imediato. Na sociedade de Wujooh, a confiança está, portanto, centrada no pagamento e não na notoriedade. O que ocorre em algumas empresas é que um ministro do governo é incluído como membro da sociedade e recebe uma certa parte do lucro, embora não contribua com bens nem participe com qualquer esforço. É associado como sócio por causa da sua posição na sociedade, para facilitar os negócios da empresa. Isto não é considerado uma sociedade de Wujooh, nem a definição de sociedade no Islão se aplica a ela. Este tipo de parceria não é permitido, tal pessoa não é sócia e não lhe é permitido tomar para si qualquer parte de tal empresa.

However, it is necessary to know what is meant by trust in this regard. When trust is mentioned in the matters of trading and company matters and the like, it is meant to be the trust in payment, which is the financial trust, not notability nor esteem. Therefore, a person may be a notable person yet He is not trusted to pay, so there is no financial trust in Him and thus there is no trust in Him in the subject of trading and partnership. He could be a minister, a rich man or a great merchant, but if He is not trusted to pay, there is no financial trust in Him nor is He trusted in anything. Therefore, He cannot buy any goods from the market without paying its price. Yet could be a poor person, but if the merchants trust Him to pay his debts, He can buy goods without paying their price immediately. In the company of Wujooh, the trust is thus focused on payment not on notability. What occurs in some companies is that a minister of the government is included as a member in the company and assigned a certain share of the profit, while He contributes no property nor participates with any effort. He is associated as a partner due to his standing in society so as to facilitate the dealings of the company. This is not considered as a wujooh company nor does the definition of a company in Islam apply to it. This type of partnership is not allowed and such a person is not a partner and He is not allowed to take anything from such a company.

What happens in some countries, like Saudi Arabia and Kuwait, is that a non-Saudi or a non-Kuwaiti person is not allowed to hold a licence for trading or working, so he includes a Saudi in Saudi Arabia or a Kuwaiti in Kuwait as a partner. He assigns to him a share of the profit, while the Saudi or Kuwaiti person does not contribute any property or his body to the company. Rather, he is considered a partner because the licence is issued in his name, and he is given a share in the profit in return for this. This type of company is also not considered one of the companies of wujooh, nor is it allowed by the Shari'ah. Such a Saudi or Kuwaiti is not considered a partner, and it is not halal for him to take anything from the company, because he does not fulfil the conditions which the Shari'ah requires in a partner in order to become a legal partner. These conditions include contributing in property, or by his body, or by the trust in payment, so that he works with the goods he takes through this trust.
