Is it permissible to evade taxes or dues that have been wrongfully imposed, or is it permissible for a person to cancel their partner’s taxes through deceit?
If a person is burdened with something not religiously obligatory for them, such as money or the like, they are permitted to defend themselves and their property through lawful means. However, if the partner's tax evasion means shifting the burden to someone else, this is not permissible, regardless of whether the taxes are rightful or unlawful.
