When payment was agreed upon for information
Question
Shalom.
An avrech told his friend about a place where there is a Purim kollel that pays 200 shekels, and he conditioned giving this information on 100 shekels. Does he need to pay him?
Answer
Shalom u’vracha.
He must give him something, but not the full amount, based on the halachic principle of “meshate ani bekha.”
