Pearl of Wisdom

'When I was taken on my Night Journey to the heavens, Inner Knowledge of Allah Gabriel took me up until a place wherein he himself had never set foot. The veils were pulled away for me and Allah, Mighty and Exalted, showed me whatever He liked from the light of His Greatness.'

Prophet Muhammad al-Mustafa [sawa]
al-Tawhid, p. 108, no. 4

Question : #2281 Category: Business / Investment
Subject: Issue in the Job
Question: Assalamu Alaikum Warahmatullahi Wabarakatuh. I pray you are in the best of health and Iman.

I am Misfar Siddeek, a Software Engineer from Sri Lanka. After eight months of unemployment and much Dua, Allah blessed me with a job at an Australian company. I have a wife and a two-month-old son to support.

I am currently on probation and have been assigned to build a frontend interface for a bank, specifically a loan calculator that displays interest rates and repayment amounts. While I am not writing the backend banking logic, I am responsible for building the visual tool that presents this information to users.

I am deeply concerned about the Hadith regarding those who record or facilitate interest. However, being on probation in a difficult job market, I fear that refusing this task could lead to termination and financial hardship for my family.

My questions are:

Does building the frontend display for a loan calculator fall under the prohibition/curse mentioned in the Hadith?

Given my family's vulnerability and my probation status, is there any concession, or must I risk my job to avoid this specific project?

I seek your guidance to ensure my earnings remain Halal and I do not earn the displeasure of Allah (SWT).

JazakAllahu Khairan,

Misfar Siddeek
Sri Lanka
