Salaam everyone! I need some advice on a halal income situation. I work at a game studio where, unfortunately, they use pirated software. I’m just an employee and follow the tasks my employer gives me — I don’t own the company or choose the tools. Now, I’m planning to take an interest-free loan from this company (they’ll deduct it monthly from my salary) to build my own personal PC. On that PC, I plan to create my own independent games using only authentic and legally purchased tools— no piracy, no inappropriate content — fully clean. Once I launch those games and start earning from them, will that income be 100% halal? Or is there a gray area I should be aware of? I’d really appreciate your insights. JazakAllah khair!
