Discussing Job Interviews Resulting In Violation Of Haqooq-ul-Ibad
As a more general question, are we liable for returning Huqooq ul Ibad if we are sure we (i) did something wrong but (ii) not sure if someone’s rights were affected? For example: someone cheats on a test, gets into a college they would have likely gotten into anyways. Now they have no idea if they need to return rights and how. For this person, cheating done out of ignorance, followed by deep remorse can create life-long anxiety about faith. They did not mean to usurp others’ rights, but with reflection, realized years into their degree that they might have hurt someone’s chances. They will have to go through life, not knowing if they are destined for Hell because if someone was harmed, they had no way to forgive them. How should such a person move past this? (From the Islamic Framework – where they sincerely repent to Allah and promise not to cheat again, but are unsure if they have successfully fulfilled Huqooq ul Ibad)?
Hello, I have taken few interview and there are several parameters of selection of candidates. 1. Multiple round 2. Personality test 3. Different question We don’t know they were also asked similar set of question you discussed. Also, I read if anyone does little cheating in exam or resume that does not make their job/income haram. Specifically for fresher we check how much they are confident to do work. I think you should just apologize to Allah. Because that is the maximum and best you can do. As there are scholars who said even if the degree is fake still if the person is able to do job income is halal. But of course lot if lies.
