Regarding job
As’salamu alaykum shaikh.
I have a doubt and if u help me by giving advice I would be very greatful.
I work for a software firm, in testing department. So most of the clients our company has are either banks/insurances/tobacco manufacturers. So my question is can i work for the software firm which will be helping in developing software products for the above mentioned clients.
Does it come under assisting in evil?
Jazak allah khair
Answer
Wa ʿAlaykumus Salām Wa Raḥmatullāhi Wa Barakātuh
The work that you do has no direct involvement in the impermissible dealings found within the commercial bank structures and the insurance providers, neither does it play a role in the manufacturing of tobacco; hence, your work does not fall under the ambit of ‘assisting in sin and vice’, and your income too is permissible.
