Bribery
Apr 28, 2026 1:51 AM

  [Quran 2:188]. Ath-Thahabi commented that, “or send it [in bribery] to the rulers”, means: do not buy them off with this wealth or induce them to confer to you the rights of others, while knowing of its impermissibility.

  [Quran 5:62]

  Therefore, whoever indulges in bribery will bear a great load of sin on his or her neck and will be questioned about it on the Day of Resurrection.
