Ruling on receiving the annual contribution known as al-Minaakh
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Is it permissible to receive the annual returns called al-Minaakh if I am an employee and receive a monthly salary? And do my children also have a right to it?
Answer:
This is a contribution from the state, and there is nothing wrong with it. It is a contribution from the state to all the subjects, whether they are present or absent. So if you take it, there is nothing wrong with it. If you die, it belongs to your heirs, unless the government prevents it and cuts it off, in which case it belongs to them. Otherwise, this al-Minaakh is for the general public, and the one who dies leaves it to his heirs after him.
