Assalamu Alaikum,
I am aware that as Muslims we are not allowed to work in a bank due to dealing/comsuming/writing/giving Riba.
My question is that I have an oppurtunity to work for HSBC Amanah ... which is the Islamic Banking Business belonging to the HSBC Bank.
My doubt is that even though I may be dealing in transactions that are within Sharia Law at HSBC Amanah (according to the related Sharia boards) ... I don't think my salary will be paid by HSBC Amanah but rather it would probably be paid by the Global HSBC Bank, whose earnings are involved in Riba.
I'm confused as to whether I can then work for HSBC Amanah if even though I'm dealing in legal transactions ... my salary may not be from illegal means
My intention was to get this career so that I could soon move on to the Arab world to set up my own business or work for an Islamic Bank there.
Can you please advise ?
