Assalamualaikum, Please answer as soon as possible as closing date
isnear. We are to pay tax, but if we show Rent Receipt we get some tax
rebates. I donot own a house, I live in my fathershouse. I give 80% of
salary to him. Now to get the tax rebate, I made a LEGAL document
which shows I am paying him rent and he gave me VALID receipts also
with his signature. The transactions are valid (I give him money more
than I showed as rent) and the documents are valid, only thing is that
atthe time of giving moneymy intentions would not have been one of
giving rent. Now will this be considered as cheating for tax rebate.
Also, we get Medical Benefits. We purchase medicine and we donot ask
for receiptsat that time. I know I puchased the medicines of X amount
but I donot have bills. Now can I make a fake bill of this X amount
(it will be fake bill not fake transaction) and submit that. Last
one,if the taxes taken by govtare used by them in both halal and haram
uses should we pay them. And even if its collected for halal end but
becuase of rampant corruption much of that ends in pockets of
profiteers/corrupt politicians-beaureaucratsshould we still give tax.
Eagerly waiting for response. Thanks

All perfect praise be to Allaah, The Lord of the Worlds. I testify
that there is none worthy of worship except Allaah, and that Muhammad
, is His Slave and Messenger.
The ruling of what you have asked about depends on the ruling of taxes
themselves as some of them are permissible and should be paid and itis
not permissible to look for ways to evade them. That is if the
treasury of acountry is unable to meetthe needs and interests of the
people and taxes are taken to meet such needs and fulfill those
interests. Accordingly, it is not permissible to evade paying them
through the tricks mentioned above nor through any other tricks. That
is because charging taxes is one of the matters that the general
interest requires and thus all should cooperate in it and comply with
what may achieve it.
However, if those taxes are illegitimate in the first place, and the
state takes them unjustly or spends them in illegal ways, then there
is no harm to evade them through such tricks and the like to ward off
oppression and remove harm with the available means. - - ▓███▓
