- Q. Recovery of already paid income taxes through future generated interest money.
I'm a computer engineer working with a software company in Mumbai. Every year I'm required to pay income taxes to the Government of India from the salary which we earn through our hard work. This money which goes into the payment of taxes is quite substantial. As part of tax savings we do some investments like fixed deposit etc. Over a period of time I get some interest money on my fixed deposit amount.
My question here is, would it be right if I use the interest money generated over my fixed deposit money to recover my loss in the form of tax payment. I'll give a scenario to better explain my thoughts:
Suppose till the December 2009, I had paid taxes of Rs. 50000/- in total. Now at the start of January 2010, my bank gives me an interest of 30000/- on my fixed deposit money. Can I use this money on myself, with niyat that I'm recovering my 30000/- amount of total 50000/- paid in form of taxes. Would it be jayaz for me.
Request you all to please kindly clarify.

- Q. 11th October 2010 / 2nd Zul Qadah 1431 Assalamou alaikum Respected Mufti sahib, I live in England, United Kingdom. I am a widow, my husband passed away nearly 3 months ago. I have 9 sons and 2 daughters. My husband?s mother is also alive. My late husband was the owner of two houses. Some months prior to his death, my husband made me a joint owner in one of these properties. Upon the instructions of my late husband, a solicitor completed the legal paperwork and we both signed various documents in the presence of witnesses. After the death of my husband, my children requested a scholar to explain the rules of Islamic inheritance so we could distribute my husband?s wealth according to the Shariah. When the discussion arose about the joint ownership of one of the houses, the scholar was of the opinion that this transfer of joint ownership was not valid because it seemed to him that this was only done symbolically and not as a genuine gift. However, beside the legal paperwork there is no other document available to support or negate the intention of the deceased. The scholar also said that even if the above gift was genuine, this kind of gift is faasid because of the following rule of Hiba: ومن وهب شقصاً مشاعاً فالهبة فاسدةٌ، فإن قسمه وسلمه جاز ) الهداية شرح بداية المبتدي,ص225,ج3, الناشر المكتبة الإسلامية) Which in essence says, if the item is such that if it is divided it can still be of use, then it is not permissible to give it without dividing it. Such items are ?a plot of land, a big house...?. See Bahishti Zewar (link below) page 66 point 5 http://www.islamicbulletin.org/free_downloads/women/bahishti_4_5_6_7.pdf I would be grateful if you would clarify (a) whether a house in the UK falls within the category of divisible property; (b) whether according to the Shariah I am the rightful owner of 50% of the house which was in joint ownership between myself and my husband. Jazakallah
