Question:
He says: Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success, is a debt from the government Tasjeel bank considered a binding debt that must be paid off on behalf of the deceased?
Answer:
Yes, it is a debt that must be paid off on behalf of the deceased. If he dies while it is still upon him, his soul is bound by it and pledged by it until it is paid off for him. A debt to the public treasury is the same as any other debt.
