Question:
What is the ruling on the salary of one who works in insurance companies?
Answer:
The salary depends on the work a person does. If the work a person does is permissible, then the salary is permissible. But if the work a person does is forbidden, then the salary is forbidden. Insurance companies are built upon riba (usury or interest), gharar (excessive uncertainty in a contract), ignorance, and consuming people's wealth unjustly. Therefore, working in them is not permissible. Yes.
