guys wats all the confusion about??it is clearly mentioned in QURAN that sood khor is at war with Allah...there is a hadith clearly mentioning that not only the giver and taker of interest is at sin but people who write interest and are involved in promoting it are also doing a sin.
as for the scholars are concerend there are few that give different logics but the majority is against jobs in a bank. so shoudnt one go for majority?
as for interest involved in multi nationals is concerend scholars say that that one should refrain from interest as much as possible.there is another hadith that warns about a time when nobody would be able to avoid sood and that will the time near QIYAMAT. so try to restrict yourself to minimum level. banks are the hub of sood.
some of my friend say that one should be in the system to change it.a very good notion indeed but dont forget that this deosnt apply here my friend. we are talking about great sin. one dont have to be a pimp himself to stop prostitution (forgive the unethical example but its necessary to make guys understand). there are other ways to handle these menaces and if u cant avoid it.
u guys dont have to worry that who will run the banks.banks wont get shortage of human resource until the system changes and when it does there will be no need of interest based banks.u really think that the islamic way can be less competent?
without going into the nitty gritty of the islamic banking concept let me tell u that it is the only solution to the debt based economy that is playing havoc with everybody(including the western world). gora's themsleves are realizing this but they cant help it becuz its not easy to get out of this so easily and to accept the islamic way really hurts their ego.
now one may argue that the circumstances these days is such that we can work in a bank. i have tried to give u the picture the decision is yours.btw i myself is doing MBA with majors in finance. this issue really bugs me aswell. a decision is to be made between your faith and worldly materialism. God help those who help themselves. try to find an alternative with niyat of avoiding interest and God will certainly pave way for u.
