Bismillah hir-Rahman nir-Rahim !

(Fatwa: 802/668/B=1433) Yes, his income is halal provided he does his assigned job well and fulfils his duty. He gets the salary of his work; hence that salary is lawful and halal without any doubt.

Q. Assalaamu A'laikum. Hazrat My father(57 years ) is gonna be retired in the next December as Deputy Director, Labour Ministry. We are only two brothers (26 and 28 years) working as government employees (First class). For the past 5/6 years my father has been trying to be religious Alhamdulillah. But in the past my father took bribe though he did not demand anything or give any illegal facilties in lieu of taking bribe; the official system as well as his religious weakness enticed him to take those. By those bribe he bought a piece of land in about 20 years ago. Recntly my elder brother has built some shops and rooms with some money(not all, around 1 lack taka) from loan of my father's provident fund and thereby we get rent monthly around Tk. 20,000. Now hazrat is it permissible to eat or utilize for other purposes from this rental earnings? if it is rquired to do Sadka, will we have to do the purchasing price of the land or the current price or including the price of the rooms majority of which were built from money of provident fund? I have heard that continual sadka in a certain little amount from a HALAL souce can be done up to the price of such HARAM property. is it true? Please dua for us. 460 views

Q. I am a Muslim working in a gas station in Calif. USA. My manager and the owner are good Muslims. Both helped me a lot when I first came to this country a year ago. We don?t sell any liqueur or lottery. The mother company keeps pushing the owner to sell liqueur or he would loose the store. Today; the manager bought a few beer boxes and put them on the shelf at more expensive price than the liqueur store next door so nobody would buy them. He told me we have to do it till we pass the inspection by the mother company. I?m afraid if I ask them to leave they would get upset. They would think that I?m showing off that I?m more religious than them because they already told me we won?t sell them. Also; it?s not easy to find a job nowadays especially with good people like them. What should I do? Please answer me as soon as possible. 499 views
