Ruling on drop shipping business for customized jewelry

Question

Is drop shipping customized jewelry permissible? Like I take order of a customized jewelry from a customer and send to the vendor to make this custom jewelry, specifically “name jewelry”. Is this business model permissible? JazakAllah

Answer

All perfect praise be to Allah, The Lord of the Worlds. I testify that there is none worthy of worship except Allah, and that Muhammad  sallallaahu  `alayhi  wa  sallam ( may  Allaah exalt his mention ) is His slave and Messenger.

As a general rule, it is permissible to work in this field. However, it becomes prohibited if it involves anything forbidden by Shariah, such as creating designs with prohibited symbols like a cross. In such cases, participating in this work is impermissible because it involves assisting in prohibited actions. Allah, the Almighty, states: {But do not cooperate in sin and aggression. And fear Allah; indeed, Allah is severe in penalty} [Quran 5:2].

Allah knows best.
