The answer

It is forbidden to forge or defraud the state to obtain assistance designated for the disabled in the right hand, due to Allah Almighty's saying: "And shun false statements" (Quran 22:30), and due to what is narrated in the prophetic hadiths considering it among the major sins. A Muslim must be keen to seek what is lawful and avoid doubtful matters.
