The Ruling on Salaries Received from Banks
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Honorable Shaykh, what is the ruling on salaries that are received from banks?
Answer:
Salaries are the right of the employees, regardless of whether they deal with banks. If the banks deposit the funds, the employees may take them out, withdraw them, or leave them as a deposit. However, they must not invest them. It is not permissible for them to invest them through riba (usury or interest); rather, they should remain as a deposit solely for the need of the month. Yes.
