One must adhere to the written conditions and fill in the required data truthfully, without lying or deception, because Allah Almighty says: "And shun false speech," and the Prophet, peace and blessings be upon him, said: "The one who pretends to have been given what he has not been given is like one who wears two garments of falsehood," and "Whoever cheats us is not of us." If there is ambiguity in a certain condition, one must refer to the responsible authority to inquire and clarify the meaning.
