Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner:
We return to the questions. This questioner, may Allah bless you, or rather this questioner, Umm Sa'id, says: What is the ruling on purchasing a computer certificate to employ my son?
The Shaykh:
If the computer is used for permissible matters, it is permissible. Yes.
The questioner:
You do not mean, may Allah bless you, that she buys the certificate without studying it, for example.
The Shaykh:
She says computer, she buys a computer.
The questioner:
She buys a computer certificate.
The Shaykh:
No, it is not permissible to buy the certificate; this is forgery and is forbidden. It is not permissible, neither a computer certificate nor any other academic certificate. It is not permissible; this is forbidden forgery. Yes.
