Working in jobs related to non-financial Haram activities : working as a financial analyst in the accounts department
Fatawa Question
Assalamu Alaykum Wa Rahmatullahi Wa Barakatuh, I have three questions but I am going to explain the situation first. I work as a financial analyst in the accounts department for a multinational company. After the books have been prepared by my colleagues in the department I take the books and start carrying out my analysis. I know for sure that in the process of preparing the books, my colleagues add forged invoices to increase costs to cover for bribes being paid to win new contracts and we are talking here about big amounts. I know for sure that this is happening but I do not take part in that. I take the books after they have been prepared and carry out my analysis. I submitted my resignation back in December because of that and I made my position clear that I do not want to be part of what is happening. I was asked by my manager who is also the deputy general manger of the office to stay on board and I was promised that I shall not be asked to take part in cheating, forging and cooking the books ; I should keep on carrying out my analysis of the books without questioning. I accepted on that condition and I stayed. Five months on and I do not feel good about the situation because still every now and then I have to turn a blind eye ! The management of our office knows and takes part in what is going on and also the head office to which our office reports to knows that this is going on but everyone pretends that the company is following an honest business code of conduct. Just to let you know ; I sent around six hundred applications to get a new job, before and after the incident of submitting my resignation, but I did not receive any positive responses. My questions are; 1-The salary I am earning is Halal or Haram ? 2-Should I resign even if I can not find another job or should I stay until I get another job ? 3-I went for Hajj back in December, the incident of submitting my resignation took place before going for Hajj, and I paid for Hajj from the salary I received from the company. Is my Hajj not accepted from the start and I mean the money I earned is not considered Halal to pay for Hajj ? Thanks and Asalamu Alaikum
