Using the company car for the benefit of the work, not for personal purposes
Q: I am an employee in a big project in Al-Jawf region (Part No. 14; Page No. 55) affiliated to the Public Electricity Company in
Riyadh.
I am an electrical technician and head of my department with a company car at my disposal which I use throughout the day for work-related purposes and other purposes. I use it for personal purposes with permission from the general manager of the project. The project requires that department heads have cars at their disposal. I would like to receive from you a ruling on using this car. May Allah reward you with the best.
A:
It is permissible for you to
use the company car for the benefit of the work not for personal purposes. May Allah grant us success. May peace and blessings be upon our Prophet Muhammad, his family, and Companions.
