Rejection of a Suitor Due to His Work in a Usurious Company
A girl has a suitor whose specifications are good, but he works in a financing company, and he says that he will leave his job if he finds another one. Do the girl's family sin by rejecting him for this reason?
Answer
I say, and with God's success: If this company deals in usury, and he participates with them in usurious contracts and promotes usury, then his money is not permissible, and it is forbidden. This is different if his work in the company is in other matters unrelated to what we mentioned. If his money is forbidden, it is not advisable to marry him. And God knows best.
