Q: If I become an electrical engineer and my company takes interest from a bank, will my income be haram?
If I become an electrical engineer and the company does something haram in a way that they think it's halal (since they don’t know that saying haram is halal is shirk), will I become a disbeliever or sinner for working in that company?
If my company works with another company that does haram activities or considers haram as halal (since they have no idea that calling haram halal is shirk), then for working in such companies, will I become a disbeliever or sinner? Will my income be haram? Will having the desire to work in such companies make me a disbeliever or sinner?
If the people in my company are Muslim but they commit shirk or make mockery of Islam, or if they work with companies that do such things — then will I become a disbeliever or sinner for joining those companies?
And if those companies are at a very high level and offer a handsome salary, will wanting to work there make me a disbeliever or sinner?
A: If the work you are employed for is halaal, then your earnings will also be halaal. You will not be sinful for the wrong dealings which your company gets involved in.
And Allah Ta'ala (الله تعالى) knows best.
