Sadd E Zariya : But Where Does The Sin Start?
@UmerQureshi sir in the first example, the risk for major sin also increases. but yes intellectually if a person decides to avoid going to this friends house because of fear of riya, this thing is impractical and seems not fitting. but from simple logic and principle point of view it seems similar to second example. then what is the foundation in Islam that tells us that going to friends house in 1st example (despite the risk) is not minor sin, but in second example we say it would be minor sin. please teach me?
This is not a problem of knowledge now but of application and here you have to decide.
Two points are not correct. To have the matter of debt written down is an advice, not an obligation. If one does not write it down he is not sinful In the second case, the halal thing never becomes a sin. If one chooses to avoid it, it is one’s own choice.
