How are you, Shaykh? May Allah prolong your life and preserve you, our Shaykh. I have a question regarding Saudiization, Shaykh?

The presenter:
We mentioned this at the beginning of the episode. Please, go ahead.
The questioner:
Shaykh, my wife is receiving a Saudi subsidy, and she is in need, meaning she is sitting at home and receiving a Saudi subsidy.
The Shaykh:
It is not permissible for her to do that; it is forbidden for her; because it is lying and fraud against the state system. She should not take it; it is forbidden for her.
The questioner:
Shaykh, even if she is in need, for example, O Shaykh.
The Shaykh:
Need is not a reason for it to be forbidden, my brother. She eats from what is lawful, yes.
The presenter:
May Allah reward you,
