• Ensuring documents are sent to relevant parties
• Creating and updating files
• Checking references
Q: My husband works for a private company. They give fuel tanks for rent to foreigners. When the fuel in the foreigner's tanks gets dirty and it is of no use to them, the driver takes that fuel and sells it outside the bazaar.

Q: I am working at an engineering company. My boss used to like me before because I was always at work early. We start work at 7:30am but I used to be at work before seven and I used to get extra money, but now I am going to work at the normal time 7:30 because I read Suratul Yaseen and azkar... My boss is not happy with me like how he was before. What should I do? Should I go early and miss my Suratul Yaseen or should read Suratul YAseen before I go to work?
Q: I want to put up some advertising boards in my town and get shops and companies to advetise on and charge them. Is this permissible?
Secondly, I wont get companies that are dealing in haraam to advertise with them, so it will probably be businesses like supermarkets and hardware stores etc. But my problem is that am I allowed to advertise for them if a part of their business might be haraam or doubtful. For example I personally dont eat commercial chickens even though it might have a halaal stamp on it. I prefer to stay away since I feel it is still doubtful, will I be able to still advertise for that supermarket that sells it. Or if there is a car dealer who sells cars but organises a loan for a customer based on interest then am I allowed to advertise for him.
Also is there any guidelines that you can give me and advise?

Q: I am working in a company in night shifts and I am planning to switch to another company due to salary concerns. To get a higher salary I have edited the payslip of my company's current salary because most of our collegues and I feel that the companies are exploiting us by paying us a less salary and they are getting higher profits. I feel like it is cheating because I am editing my current salary from 17000 and faking it to 21000. I have already been selected and if I join that company, is my income Halal or Haram?
