Is the work of a mother in the department of employee retirement files, and the calculation of the Suez Canal Authority bonus granted by the government to workers in Port Said governorate, permissible (halal)?

1 min readAlso available in العربية

There is no difference between the ruling on a mother calculating employee salaries and calculating their pensions, as both are forbidden if the employee's work is unlawful. It is forbidden to calculate the pensions of those who worked in unlawful fields, just as it is forbidden to calculate their salaries. There is no harm in calculating the pension of those who worked in permissible fields. As for the free zone bonus, there is no objection to calculating it, as it is a grant from the government to employees and not a wage for their work.
