Interest in Accountancy...is it ISLAMIC?

[noman]

hi.....

guyz i want to take opinions abt a sensitive things.

we know that as muslims we must not indulge in anything which deals with earning interest etc etc...bcoz its haram in islam.

from what little knowledge i have...i think that
those who work in insurance,leasing companies and banks are earning their income from interest....that also by directly dealing with interest...

what about chartered accountancy? will we be doing things which involve lot of dealing with interest???
i guess that job of finance manager falls in this category...


but the question is.........
will we be doing halal job if we bcome CA?

It is not a good issue to be discussed here. But my opinion about interes based system is as like yours. But i dont thing so that Chartered accountancy falls under this. Because you are providing knowledge based consultancy which others cannot

mr.noman, u ve raised very right n critical issue. uptill now, only bankers were accused of dealing in interest-based systems. ur point is very valid, n i personally ve thought it some months back. but i feel tht God will punish only those who collect/pay the interest n use it physically, or the persons who make policies for it. but in accounting, u r not physically collecting the interest. u r just recording the economic event only, i feel. plz do correct me, all mates, if u feel differently.

thank god someone replied.

my point was about CA...like when they are doing finance management........which essentially is the job of making policies to benefit most from interest based system..

CA plans how to use interest in most profitable way....like he is the brain behind it.......
but thats what i guess....and from what i know this applies only to finance managment..i don't know about auditing...

i hope some other ppl also reply and participate in this discussion....but i think ppl are afraid..bcoz i posted this 4 days ago and only two ppl replied....
