The Ruling on Benefiting from the Health Insurance of Others
I have private insurance from the company I work for, where I pay a percentage and the company pays a percentage. I have a cousin who is not insured and is in a difficult financial situation; she is sick and needs treatment. Is it permissible for her to benefit from my private health insurance?
Answer
I say, and with God's help: This is deception, betrayal, and lying, and it is not befitting a Muslim. It is forbidden for others to benefit from your insurance, and God knows best.
