The ruling on writing a doctor's name and signature on a medical examination for employment
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner:
A colleague says that about fifteen years ago, while undergoing a medical examination, he completed all the checks except for one of the doctors, whom he could not find. Why? He could not find him. Yes, that is correct. He did not find that doctor. So he wrote his name and signed it, then took it to the employment review, and he was hired. He is now regretting that.
The Shaykh:
Yes, repeat the question?
The questioner:
A colleague says that about fifteen years ago, while undergoing a medical examination
The Shaykh:
That is, for the purpose of the job. Yes.
The questioner:
He signed all the medical examinations by the doctors, but he could not find one of the doctors, who was the internal medicine specialist, so he wrote his name and signed it, then took it to the employment review, and he was hired on that basis.
The Shaykh:
This is lying and forgery; this is lying and forgery, and it is forbidden because it is forgery and lying to the doctor. It is also forgery against the government, so this is lying and forgery. However, he must repent to Allah (Glorified and Exalted is He), regret what happened, and not return to such a thing. And Allah (Exalted and Majestic is He) accepts the repentance of whoever repents. Yes.
