Electricity Theft Under the Pretext of High Bill Prices
We live in an area where everyone connects electricity behind the meter, except we have not done like them and the electricity bill is very expensive for us. Is it permissible for us to do like them, and is it halal or haram?
Answer
I say, and with God's success: This is theft of public funds, and it is forbidden by law, and it is not permissible to do it. We must adhere to piety and steadfastness on the truth, and God knows best.
