The questioner : A man works for the electricity company, and the electricity company wants to give them monthly amounts without interest. They said, “We will give you one thousand for one thousand.” He pays them one thousand, but there is a condition that you take out life insurance for us. And the description of the insurance is…
The Shaykh : It is invalid.
The questioner : Yes, because it is not their right, meaning if this condition is invalid. What is your opinion, O our Shaykh?
The Shaykh : O Shaykh, I have already given you the answer, may Allah guide you. The condition is invalid.
The questioner : Yes.
The Shaykh : It is not permissible for him to take it.
The questioner : May Allah bless you, Shaykh.
The Shaykh : And upon you be peace, and Allah’s mercy and blessings. Allah.
