Business and Dealings

Q: My question is about bank interest. If a person is receiving interest from a bank, can he use this interest for a poor girl's marriage?

Q: I would like to know if it would be Jaiz-correct to use interest-Riba money to pay for eTolls in Guateng.

The points to consider are the following :

1) There are no new roads that were built. These were all existing roads that have been improved by SANRAL.

2) The roads improvement were also done as part of the infrastructure improvement deal for the 2010 world-cup.

3) The alternative routes are not in a good condition and in most cases are not even suitable to be used as alternative routes to and fro from travel destinations.

4) The government already imposes high taxes and specific road taxes via the road levy that are paid via the price of fuel.

5) The consumer-citizen was not correctly consulted by the state to impose such fees on roads (via vote or poll) and the legislation was pushed through very aggressively by the ruling party and those that benefit financially from the eToll income.

6) The majority of the income from eToll leaves the country and is paid to a company in Europe.

7) The improvement of the roads has benefited movement of traffic in some areas, and eased congestion at some peak times.

8) The roads are more safe to drive on and are better lit up in certain areas at night.

As this is a current hot debate in our area, your URGENT attention and response thereof would be most highly appreciated.
