Are the father's earnings considered lawful or unlawful if he concealed his heart condition from his government employer in Saudi Arabia, fearing dismissal, knowing that he needs to save money for a future project, and is the money he sends to his family considered lawful?

1 min readAlso available in العربية

The money your father earns from his work is lawful (halal) as long as he performs the duties required of him.
