Are Amazon FBA & FBM permissible to utilize?

Bismillahi Ta’ala

Walaikum Assalam Warahmatullah

FBA (Fulfilled By Amazon): Amazon acts as your agent to keep your products in their warehouse. when any order comes, they pick the items, pack it and send out to the recipient. For this they charge you a fee. This concept is pretty straight forward a wakalah bil urja (fee based agency), and is Shar’an Acceptable.

FBM (Fulfilled By Merchant): This is a broad term which includes Amazon Drop-shipping as well as regular sales on Amazon platform which are then fulfilled by yourself (merchant). The ruling for Drop-shipping was already mentioned before [ https://fatwa.ca/is-drop-shipping-business-permissible/ ].

As far as you as a seller or a merchant fulfilling the orders yourself, and only using Amazon as a selling platform. This concept is good and Shariah Compliant.
