I began working with an online platform as a lecturer for one of the university subjects. The arrangement was that I provide (60%) of the content, and the platform manager takes (40%) for advertising the course, as well as uploading the videos to the platform. Lately, I've noticed a lapse in the platform's responsibilities. I handle the teaching, advertising, and video uploads, while they haven't fulfilled their agreed-upon duties. Is it permissible for me to take the full (100%) considering their non-compliance with the agreed terms? I have informed the responsible party about the shortcomings, but it has been to no avail. Consequently, I decided to work independently without using their platform and take the full percentage. Is this permissible?

Zaid came to Amr advising him to invest a sum of money in the stock exchange, and told him: "Don't worry, I got this." Accordingly, Amr understood that the profit will be 50/50 and Zaid alone will be liable for the loss. Amr paid that sum as a mixture of investment and debt. The contract was concluded in Zaid`s name who paid (20000 JDS) by Amr. Within 45 days, they made a profit of about (6000 JDs) and this amount was divided equally between them. However, after a few days, the stock exchange collapsed and all the investors lost their money. Zaid filed a case against the stock exchange, but it was of no avail.  Zaid committed to pay (17000 JDs) to Amr. I.e. the capital minus his portion of the profit (3000 JDs). What is the ruling of Sharia on this contract?

The first party is responsible for bringing this fuselage to a certain location while the second shall do whatever is needed to equip this restaurant to the fullest. In order to safeguard the financial rights of the first party, one point of the contract stipulated the following: "The second party shall pay (1000 JDs), at the minimum, to the first party from the monthly revenues and for each month, except during forced closures and in the incidence of storms and inactivity resulting from force majeure." After asking about this, we were told that it is unlawful to determine this percentage at a certain sum for this is usury (Riba). Therefore, it was suggested to adjust the above point into one of the following alternatives: First, the second party shall pay a monthly salary (1000 JDs) to the first party, although the latter party won`t be working on the project. Second, the second party shall pay (1000-1500 JDs), at minimum, to the first party from the monthly profits. In light of this, is determining a percentage from the profits, as indicated above, unlawful according to Sharia?
