Using an ATM card

· 11 Rabiʻ II 1440 AH1 min readEnglish

Question

Allied bank is giving an ATM card in which we can deposit money from any city and can get money from anywhere with using this card from the branch of that bank and there is no charges of depositing and transactions. There is no need for any account of this. We only have to create an ATM card once from an Allied bank.

My question is that, is this permissible in shariah (deen) or not to use this ATM card? There is no extra money required for depositing and transacting.

Answer

It is permissible.

And Allah Ta'ala (الله تعالى) knows best.
