Is it permissible for an employee to use state property?

Question : Is it permissible for an employee to use government property for his personal purposes?

Answer : No, it is not permissible for a person to use government property for his personal purposes, never. Whether it is a car, a typewriter, paper, or pens, all of this is forbidden. Indeed, even making a phone call is forbidden, except for what the state has authorized. What it authorizes is what does not require dialing the zero, because the fact that they remove the zero from the phones means that it necessitates the permissibility of internal calls.
