Presenting false bonds and claiming to have spent the money on moving the family and furniture

633

A: If the reality is as mentioned, it is not permissible for a person to present forged vouchers claiming that its value has been spent in transferring their family or luggage and to demand this money from Bayt-ul-Mal. This is considered forgery and fraud. The money they have taken is prohibited and unlawful. They should receive Ta`zir (discretionary punishment) and the money they have taken unlawfully should be returned. They should not commit such sins on the pretext that others do the same.May Allah grant us success. May peace and blessings be upon our Prophet Muhammad, his family, and Companions.
