What is the ruling on a university student benefiting from unemployment benefits, having registered with a previous high school certificate, knowing that he is studying another specialization with a different high school certificate, and given that registration for unemployment benefits requires a pledge not to be a university student, and knowing that he does not benefit from university grants?

The answer depends on the condition set by the granting body. You must adhere to it without deception or circumvention, based on the words of Allah Almighty: "O you who have believed, fulfill [all] contracts," and the words of the Prophet, peace and blessings be upon him: "Muslims are bound by their conditions." Therefore, refer back to the responsible authority and inform them that you have two high school certificates and are studying with one of them. Then, ask them about your eligibility for the scholarship.
