Question

A person prints a personal email, document, etc., from his employer. There is a subtle allowance and a fair use policy in place. As a Muslim, is there anything forbidden in this practice?

Answer

Whatever is permissible to print according to the Shari’ah will be permissible, since the company has allowed the employees to use the equipment.

And Allah Ta'ala (الله تعالى) knows best.

Fatawa SA is an independent, read-only index of fatawa already published by Mufti Online — Madrasah Ta'leemuddeen. It is not a fatwa service. For your own situation, ask the issuing Darul Ifta directly.
