I work in a company where entrepreneurs are given loans for business and I prepare their project reports without which they can’t get loan facility as it is considered to be an essential document for securing finance. I want to know whether my job is halaal or haraam? And in case its haram, can I continue working here till I get another job or I should quit? Is it permissible to use the salary which I have saved since I was not knowing about it being haraam earlier. So can I spend that salary on myself till I get another job?
