What has been mentioned about forging others' signatures is considered deception and prohibited forgery, for the Prophet, peace and blessings be upon him, said: "Whoever deceives is not of us." One must refrain from deception in any assigned work, and there is no obligation to leave a job because of this. If it is not possible to refrain from deception, then one must leave the job unless there is a necessity for it and no other alternative is found. Otherwise, let him fear Allah and seek another job to transfer to when he finds one.
