Taking the insurance amount after the accident
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
May Allah reward you. He says: A person hit me with his car, and he had insurance. I then took the insurance and went with it to the competent authority. They assessed the damage, so I took the amount, repaired my car with part of it, and kept the rest. Is that permissible for me?
Answer:
Insurance is from the money of people; it is not from the money of the one who caused the accident. This is from the money of people. So do not take it. Yes.
