Is comprehensive car insurance permissible in Belgium?
Commercial insurance contracts are forbidden because they involve gambling (Qimar) and uncertainty (Gharar). However, whoever is compelled to enter into such a contract is not sinful, provided that they limit themselves to the minimum legally permissible amount, and they do not benefit from it beyond the amount they paid in. Any excess should be given as charity to the poor and needy.
