What is the ruling on designing a program for an interest-based bank, knowing that the employee will be fired if he refuses?

1 min readAlso available in العربية

It is not permissible to design a program for a usurious bank, as it involves assisting in usurious transactions, which is forbidden.

However, necessities permit the forbidden, and are estimated according to their measure.
