\n\tQuestion:<\/strong><\/span><\/span>\n<\/p>\n

\n\tAssalamualaikum<\/span><\/span>\n<\/p>\n

\n\tI am graduating in accounting and finance, I have recently found out that observing interest is haram and mentioned clearly in the Quran. <\/span><\/span>\n<\/p>\n

\n\tWhat is the stance of the scholars for a Muslim observing interest, either working for someone else or opening his own business and observing.<\/span><\/span>

\n\tIn the name of Allah, the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful.<\/u><\/strong><\/span><\/span>\n<\/p>\n

\n\t \n<\/p>\n

\n\tAnswer:<\/u><\/strong><\/span><\/span>\n<\/p>\n

\n\t \n<\/p>\n

\n\tDealing with interest is a sin and any money earned through it is considered haram<\/em> and will have to be given in charity without the intention of reward.<\/span><\/span>\n<\/p>\n

\n\tIt will not be permissible to work at any institute that earns their revenue through haram<\/em> sources. <\/span><\/span>\n<\/p>\n

\n\tHowever<\/span><\/span> you are not required to leave your job <\/span><\/span>instantly,<\/span><\/span> but should exert all your efforts in finding a job which is shariah<\/em> compliant. When that is possible, you should resign from your current job.[1]<\/a><\/span><\/span>\n<\/p>\n

\n\tWe also advise that you should priorities finding a shariah<\/em> compliant job even though it may be less prospective material wise; perhaps specializing in the rapidly growing Islamic finance sector would be advisable.<\/span><\/span>\n<\/p>\n
