Is it permissible to work on installing a telecommunications system for a commercial insurance company that includes life insurance?
Source: FtawySummary from Ftawy's records · added here Sep 2, 2026
Commercial insurance is forbidden due to its inclusion of (excessive uncertainty), riba (interest/usury), and qimar (gambling). It is not permissible to work for companies based on this forbidden transaction, nor to assist them in their work. Therefore, it is not permissible for the questioner to assist that company in its work, neither by installing a communication system nor by any other means.
