Dought & clear, - He works in a companythat stores files of various companies, including insurance companies and riba-based banks.

I work in a company whose main work is storage of files and documents
belonging to various companies, but these companies includebanks and
insurance companies. I work in thewarehouse, carrying the boxes that
contain the files and putting them inthe right place, then when there
is a request for any box, I bring it. Please note that every client of
the company has his own number andI only know a few of the client.
What is the ruling on my work?
Praise be to Allah.
As this storage of files belonging to the companies is something that
helps the companiesto do their work, because these files undoubtedly
contain everything that they need of contracts, accounts, documents
and other things that are essential to their business;
And as these companies include insurance companies and riba-based
banks, your work in storing these files is regarded as cooperating
with the insurance companies and riba-based banks in their haraam
work. Allah, may He be exalted,says (interpretation of the meaning):
"Help you one another in Al‑Birr and At‑Taqwa (virtue, righteousness
and piety); but do not help one another in sin and transgression. And
fear Allaah. Verily, Allaah is Severe in punishment"[al-Maa'idah 5:2].
What the Muslim must do is give up disobeying Allah, may He be
exalted,and not help the sinner in his sin. You stated thatyou only
know a few of the clients. Based on that, you cannot avoid falling
into haraam (which is helping the insurance companies and riba-based
banks) except by leaving this job, because it is a mixture of halaal
and haraam work, and you are certain that you are inevitably falling
into haraam.
If a person gives up something for the sake of Allah, Allah will
compensate him with something better than it.
We will quote to you some of the fatwas of the scholars that have to
do with your issue, so that you will understandthat the least
cooperation with these riba-based organisationscomes under the heading
of cooperating or helping in sin and transgression, which is something
that Allah, may He be exalted, has forbidden to His believing slaves.
The Standing Committee for Issuing Fatwas was asked about a person who
works as a guard ina bank.
They replied: It is not permissible for a Muslim to work as a guard in
banks that deal with riba, because this comes under the heading of
co-operating in sin and transgression, which Allah has forbidden as He
says (interpretation of the meaning): "but donot help one another in
sin and transgression" [al-Maa'idah 5:2]. And most of the banks deal
with riba. End quote.

The Standing Committee for Issuing Fatwas was also asked:
I work as a typist and sometimes I am asked to type letters to some
banks to carry out some transactions, including cases where the
company lends the bank (or borrows from it) a sum of money with a
commission of such and such a percentage of thevalue of the loan. I
hope that you can advise me as to how Islamically acceptable this work
is with regard to writing these letters.
They replied: Your work recording riba-based transactions is haraam
and the money that you receive in return for thatis also haraam. It is
narrated in a saheeh report that the Prophet (blessings and peace of
Allah be upon him) cursed the one who consumes riba, the one who pays
it, the one who writes it down and the two who witness it. What you
must do is giveup this job, because in that which is halaal there is
sufficient so thatone has no need of that which is haraam. If a person
gives up something for the sake of Allah, Allah will compensate him
with something better than it.End quote.

The committee was also asked:
I work for Aramco in the housing department. This department gives
loans to build accommodation for the workers. These loans
areriba-based according to a fatwa from you. My work in this
department has to do with allocationof land and I have nothing to do
with signing loans, witnessing them and so on. Is there any sin on me
because of my work in this department which gives riba-based loans?
They replied:
If the situation is as you describe, that your workis in allocating
land and not in giving riba-based loans, then your work does not have
anything to do with riba directly, but it involves working with those
who do deal with riba directly, and that is not permissible, because
it comes under the heading of co-operating in sin and transgression.
End quote.
Fataawa al-Lajnah ad-Daa'imah, 15/17-18
The following question was also sent to the committee:
I work as an accountant in a newspaper. This newspaper publishes a
page every day that gives news about actors and entertainers, both
male and female. Is there anything wrong with my salary?
They replied:
Most of the news about actors and entertainers, both male and female,
speaks of their evil and deviant ways. It also promotes idle pursuits
and spreads temptation and promotes evil and corruption and other
things that are abhorrent and take away dignity and moral values.
Undoubtedly working in such fields is not permissible because it
involves co-operating in sin and transgression. Based on that, it is
not permissible to take this as a means of earning a living. There are
many ways of earning a living,so one should fear one's Lord. Allah,
may He be exalted, says (interpretation of the meaning):
"And whosoever fears Allaah and keeps his duty to Him, He will make a
way for him to get out (from every difficulty).
3. And He will provide him from (sources) he never could imagine"
[al-Talaaq 65:2-3]
"And whosoever puts histrust in Allaah, then He will suffice him.
Verily, Allaah will accomplish his purpose. Indeed Allaah has set a
measure for all things"
[al-Talaaq 65:2-3].
End quote.
Fataawa al-Lajnah ad-Daa'imah, 15/52-53
Shaykh Saalih al-Fawzaan (may Allah preserve him) said:
Dealing with riba is haraam for companies, banks and individuals. It
is not permissible for theMuslim to take a job in places that deal
with riba, even if their dealing with it is minimal, because the one
who works in these organisations and placesthat deal with riba will be
cooperating with them in sin and transgression, and co-operating with
those who deal in riba is also subject to the curse, because the
Prophet (blessings and peace of Allah be upon him) said: "Allah has
cursed the one who consumes riba, the one who pays it, the two who
witness it and the one who writes it down." End quote.
