Working in a call centre belonging to a riba-based institution

Question: 148390

I have just began a new job within a call centre. What I do and
the service I provide is Halal which has nothing to do with
Riba or anything of the sort. However the branch I work in is a
department of a global investment Institution ‘Macquarie
Bank’ which provides Riba Services. Is my line of work Halal
or not?.

Praise be to Allah, and peace and blessings be upon the Messenger of Allah and his family.

If the call centre does
permissible work, then it is permissible to work there, even
if it is owned by an individual who deals in riba or belongs
to an institution that offers riba-based services. That is
for two reasons:

1.
What matters is that the nature of the work
is permissible

2.
It
is reported that some of the Sahaabah did work for the Jews,
who deal in and consume riba.

For more information please see
question no. 82617.

And Allah knows
best.
