What is the ruling on working with a company that handles data entry for subscription applications of companies contracted with the National Commercial Bank?
It is permissible to work on entering data for subscription forms of companies and commercial establishments, provided that the company does not engage in forbidden transactions. Accordingly, it is permissible to work for a permissible company contracted with Al-Ahli Bank to enter subscription data. The ruling on subscribing to other companies varies according to the nature of their business. The ruling on Bank Al-Bilad was mentioned previously. As for "Sadafco" company, Sheikh Abdul Karim Al-Khudair issued a fatwa against subscribing to it, due to the presence of a small percentage of usurious interest, emphasizing that usury is forbidden no matter how small its percentage. This ruling also applies to "Yanbu National Petrochemical Company (Yansab)" because it is a mixed company. The summary is that it is permissible to work with companies contracted with banks to enter subscription data, provided that the company to be subscribed to does not engage in forbidden transactions.
