Working in insurance and actuary and insurance agents
Fatawa Question
Assalam O Alaikum I hope InshAllah you are doing well. I wanted to ask you a few questions regarding working in insurance companies. I live in Canada and attend the University of Waterloo. A number of Muslims want to be actuaries. However, I am not sure if they should pursue this profession. I have read the opinions regarding indulging in insurance and what I do not understand is how it can be Halaal ? In other words, can you explain to me how insurance can be Halaal ? I was wondering if you are able to explain how insurance can be Halaal if it does not have any Riba-based term (s) in the contract when the concept of insurance surely sounds like Riba to me. Walaikum Salam and JazakAllah Khayran
