Work with a company that make it sale through haram tactics like bribery etc.

[Hassan Ali]

Asslam-o-Alaikum,
I am working as a Accountant in a Furniture & Interior Design Company. After getting my job i realised that my company makes it sale by using the haram means like bribery etc. Our Manager give bribery and do some manipulation of documents. For example: For getting the project he use the letter heads of other companies to show that our company rates are much lower then the other companies and then he gave bribery to some persons who help him to get this project. Being an accountant i make sales invoices, maintain all the cash in hand/cash at bank. . Is salary from my job is halal?? Further i use company's water to do ablution for prayer. Is it halal because company pay this water bill from haram income... Plz any brother can help me for my situation.

Wa alaikum salaam.

The fact that you are not directly involved in the haraam will make your salary halaal and the water you use is also permissible.

However you have a moral duty to change the wrong that is taking place.

If your conscious still troubles you, by all means look for another job.

May Allah make it easy for you.

JazakALLAH. . But can you please tell me one another thing regarding the jobs of Companions of Prophet (Peace and blessings of ALLAH be upon him) with non-muslims. .

 

[Abz2000]

Some (ra) did work on farms and in gardens, and some of those gardens belonged to jews, but it is also clear that war was declared on usurers, but then the verse also begins with "O you who believe", but that's not an excuse to indulge in usury since mankind is required to submit to Allah and believe in all of His Messengers.

Do what you can to promote halal and prevent haram, with the strength of your personality, with your tongue, and at the very least, make haram destested in your heart since your heart is a unit taken into consideration when the judgement of Allah descends upon a people.

Upon you is your effort, and bear in mind that you are not an angel either so no need for excessive enmity towards people.
A part of the test of intellect in this world is that not everything is clearly separated.

Allah knows when you are able to do better and are just presenting excuses, and He knows when you would like to do more but are stuck, so do your beat to satisfy Allah.

The paper and digital money you handle contain faithless promises to repay pound weights of sterling silver based on usury.
Does that mean you starve? No!
Does that mean you use the excuse to survive and go out of your way to grovel for a job at rothschild and co. printing presses? Of course not!
How much of a willing participant are you in sin?
Who will bear the burden?
How much excuse do you have now that the Islamic state has announced trading and transacting in shariah based metals?
What about the fact that they have been unjustly harassed and sabotaged just for establishing legitimate universal law as instructed by God?
Too much waswas would mean that you refuse to migrate if the travel agency only accepts faithless paper and digits.
(though tarzan went to america by handing the agency a sack of gold nuggets and they even arranged for local transport, accomodation and edibles )

“And (O Muhammad) recite to them the story of the two sons of Adam (Abel and Cain) in truth; when each offered a sacrifice to God, it was accepted from the one but not from the other.* The latter said to the former; ‘I will surely kill you.’” (Quran 5:27)

“The former said: ‘Verily God accepts only from those who are pious.* If you do stretch your hand against me to kill me I shall never stretch my hand against you to kill you, for I fear God; the Lord of mankind, jinn, and all that exists.’” (Quran 5:27-28)

“So the self *(base desires) of the other (latter one) encouraged him and made fair seeming to him the murder of his brother; he murdered him and became one of the losers.” (Quran 5:30)

Assalamualykum.

What aspect would you like to know about?

Yes they had business transactions with non muslims and were at times employed by non muslims, on the condition that it doesn't compromise the situation of the Muslims.

Jazakallah khair.
