Government reimbursement
Question
In the country where I live, if you are a working person, the government will send you tax every three months without you asking for it. Is this money halaal?
Answer
If the government is reimbursing you then it is permissible to receive the reimbursement.
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.
