Question:
Bismillah Hir Rahman Nir Rahim Salam Alaykum, Please note that I want to know, if a person paying utility bills of his Boss (employer) since from many years and few months back he got a credit card which is offering some percentage of cash back if he pays the utility bill by credit card. If he does not use the credit card and pay by cash the same amount he has to pay at the counter in cash. In that case do he has to inform his boss and refund the money to him, if he himself keeps the money will it be Haram for him. He is also the director of the company without any monetary benefits. Both the Employer & employee is Asna e Ashri. Please inform the rulings in this case. Thank you very much. iltemase dua Syed Ali Hussain
Answer:
If the credit card belongs to the company, every discount or bonus comes to
the card, belongs to the company.

Question:
Assalaam Alailkum I have been shortlisted for a job which may involve paying for alcohol using the company credit card. This is a very small part of the job, maybe once a year. The alcohol would then be given to colleagues by my boss as a reward for completing a job. If I am interviewed for the job, should I inform the interview panel that as a Muslim I am not permitted to do this? Does the same apply to non halal food? For example purchasing non halal meat sandwiches for colleagues to eat? W/Salaam
Answer:
It is completely forbidden (Haraam) for any Muslim to do any job or
work related to alcohol even once in the whole life. Haraam is Haraam
always and there is no justification what so ever to do that. You must tell
the company that you are not allowed to do it and will never do it.
Other non Halal food ( except alcohol and pork) is allowed for those who
believe that it is allowed for them.
Wassalam.

Question:
Salam Alaikum Imam Al Musawi, If my husband's sons by another wife come to live with us in our home, do I have to wear hijab in front of them since I am not the biological mother. I am 48 years old and they are 15, 17, and 20 years old. I know it is in Quran, Surah Al Noor verse 31, but I wanted to make sure when it says husband's sons,it means by another wife. Shookrahn/Thank You, Sister AnNisa
Answer:
If the marriage between you and your present husband has been implemented ,
not just by Nikah recited but by sexual intercourse, then all your husband
children from any other marriage become Mahram for you and you do not need
to wear Hijab in front of them.
Wassalam.

Question:
Salaam alaykum sayed Mohammad al-musawi. I am working in a warehouse where my duty includes offloading the deliveries from the lorry and keeping in the warehouse. The delivery includes household items, food items and alcohol. I don’t deal in selling of these items but i only offload and i am getting paid for offloading the deliveries. How do i purify my income, what is the percentage of purifying it and where do I give this money to? Please explain very much in details. Ahsant. I follow the taqleed of Ayatullah Sistani.
Answer:
It is forbidden to do any job or any work which involves alcohol including
offloading. You must stop immediately doing this work. The previous money
earned from your job which includes offloading allowed items and alcohol
must be divided according to the real or approximate percentage of the
alcohol, and the percentage of the alcohol from the previous income must be
given to the poor because it is unlawful income.
You are not allowed to continue doing any thing related to alcohol at all.
Wassalam.
