Q: I'm in UAE and here vehicle insurance for all vehicle is mandatory.
My question is, working in a vehicle insurance companay as a reconcile officer which the person has to check how many vehicles insurance we have paid and how much we have claimed from the third party insurance company. But I'm not engaging directly or indirectly to sell or buy the vehicle or other types of insurance to anyone.
Is that permissible in Islam, i.e. is my earning halaal or haraam?
Q: Will taking stock on the basis that if I sell it, I will pay for it, and if I don't sell it, I will return it (commonly known as consignment), be permissible?
Q: Is it permissible in Islam for a Muslim to trade/invest in stocks and earn an income from the profits every month? Will the earnings be Halaal?
Q: Since eggs can be bought from people who keep free range chickens, won't it be haraam to buy eggs from the shops who get the eggs from the big companies who keep the poor chickens in small boxes their whole life and they keep them very opressively?
Q: Scenario:
I met up in an accident some time ago. The back bumper and other parts were damaged. I then met up in a second accident and, the car was damaged at the same place before I got it fixed. The person with the second accident has insurance.
So will it be permissible for me to claim the complete cost of it and not tell them that the car was in an accident before. If I do tell them that the car was in an accident before, the insurance company will not pay anything for the damaged.
Will it be permissible for me not to tell them and claim the entire amount from them?
Q: Is it permissible for Muslims to collect social grants paid by the government as alot of the taxes collected by the government is derived from the sale of haraam products and services such as alcohol and casinos. Just as cooking a large meal in a big pot with all halaal ingredients and then mixing the meal with a little bit of pork makes it haraam, does this principle apply to the collection of grants by this government?
Q: I want to ask regarding inheritance. I have 3 daughters, so at present when I pass away, after my wife and daughters receive their share, the majority will go to my brothers or if they are no longer living then to my nephews by my understanding.
If I was to put the majority of my property into my wife and daughters names and leave for example 10% in my name, when I die I assume the share of that 10% will go to my my wife and daughters, and the remaining will go to other male inheritors.
So you see my intention is that my wife and daughters get the majority share by me transferring most of my property into their names.
My question is whether that is permissible by Islamic law.
Q: My question is regarding weighing. I work in a shop where halaal meat is sold. They sometimes put offers on. For example, 3lb weight chicken breast boneless. The actual weight is maybe 50g for example less because the meat is cleaned from excess fat for the benefit of the customer.
My question is the butchers clean the chicken from excess fat beforehand and put on display. They then give them that chicken less the 50g or so from the 3lb weight. My heart tells me this is not right but maybe it is. Could you please let me know?
Q: I have been earning via boosting game accounts which is basically leveling them up to a certain level and then selling it to customers. However, the game seems to ban some of my accounts because of the violation of terms of sales whenever it detects me boosting them. Furthermore, I'll have to make sure I create as much randomness as possible in the process of making the account so that I cannot be detected boosting them. I would like to know if this is a haraam or a halaal way of earning as I put a lot of time and effort in boosting these accounts and I make sure they are sold to the customers with complete honesty and warranty of the account.
Q: Please could I get clarity on the following regarding wills:
If a person wants a particular relative to receive a particular item upon his/her death, can this be done? (For instance, items that are currently in use that cannot be given during one's life e.g. a car, jewellery, sentimental items, etc.)
Can a person write in his Islamic will that upon his demise, such and such item of his should be given to person A?
