The Ruling on Using Health Insurance for a Non-Beneficiary

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
May Allah reward you. I am an employee at a company, and the company provides us with a health insurance card, but my parents are not covered by the insurance. On one occasion, I took my father for treatment, but I agreed with the clinic to put it under my name so that it would be deducted from the insurance. Is this action correct, and what is the solution?

Answer:
This action is not correct, neither for you nor for him; it is not permissible for you to be treated with it. Neither you nor he, because this insurance is forbidden (haram), because it is consuming people's money unjustly. You must treat yourself with your own money if you need to, and treat your father with your personal money, and do not use this insurance because it is forbidden (haram) money, because it is from the money of people, from the money of the subscribers to this thing, and it is not yours. Leave the insurance, for neither you nor your father, and treat yourself and your father and your children with your own money if you want safety and want to be saved.
