Ruling on Using a Work Vehicle for Personal Matters
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
The questioner, who used the initials (M. N.) for his name, says: Your Eminence! What is the ruling on using a work vehicle for personal matters? Knowing that the direct supervisor at the office has no objection to it, please guide us in this matter.
Answer:
Work vehicles are to be used for what the instructions require, and one is not permitted to use them for anything else; doing so would be a betrayal of trust. If the instructions permit him to use it for such and such, then there is no harm. However, if he uses it because the manager or the deputy manager is lenient with him, no, it is obligatory for him to use it according to the established instructions that the state has determined. Yes.
The presenter: May Allah reward you with good.
