Is it permissible to work with a medical degree that I obtained by means of bribery, and does passing the evaluative exam make it permissible for me to work with it?

The answer

Bribery is forbidden and is only permissible for restoring a right or averting harm. Your payment of a bribe to obtain a certificate without effort necessitates repentance. As for working with that certificate, it is permissible if you are qualified and capable of performing the work in the relevant field; otherwise, it is not. The field of medicine is dangerous and sensitive, requiring sufficient expertise to avoid harming patients.
