The answer to your question is as follows:

The Muslim brother should sell the precious stone received as a guarantee and keep only as much money as the non-Muslim owed to him i.e. 10000 USD only. The rest amount of 90,000 USD must be returned to the non-Muslim brother. The non-Muslim brother is the owner of extra amount of 90,000. So it is forbidden and haram as per Shariah for a Muslim to take extra amount.

The answer to your question is as follows:

India, under the current circumstances, is the country of peace and harmony. It cannot be called Dar-ul-Harb and the laws of Dar-ul-Harb will not apply here. However, the issue of usurious transactions in Dar al-Harb is different. According to Imam Abu Yusuf, it is absolutely illegitimate and according to Imam Abu Hanifa and Imam Muhammad, it is permissible with a few conditions. Prohibition is prescribed in the Qur'anic verses without any condition; Therefore, here in Hanafiate, the school of Jumhoor has priority and there is a fatwa on it. Therefore interest based transactions cannot be justified in India.

The answer to your question is as follows:

Medical insurance has been declared illegal by the jurists even in the present age. The entire amount deposited in the insurance company is usually lost, it is not refunded. However, the company cooperates in certain conditions when needed. Any dealing that ensures either profit or loss for the parties is gambling in Shari'ah terms. Since it is like usury and gambling which are strictly forbidden by the Shari'ah, it is not permissible.

Also, all the taxes paid by the father in his lifetime has already gone to the government. The son had no right over it before, nor does he have too. Hence, it is not permissible for the son to take insurance in its name. The insurance which is mandatory and legally required by the government and the person has no choice but to opt for it, it is permissible; while we do not know any such law on medical insurance.

The answer to your question is as follows:

In business and trade, sometimes there is profit and sometimes there is loss and both may go up and down too. In the above mentioned case, the profit rate is fixed, so you would get the specified profit in every case, thus it is not a trade, but it is an interest gaining policy where you are giving your money at 6% interest, which is absolutely forbidden in Shariah. So it is not permissible to take the above policy and earn profit from it. You should terminate it immediately and adopt a halal method of trading.

عَنْ جَابِرٍ، قَالَ: «لَعَنَ رَسُولُ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ اٰكِلَ الرِّبَا، وَمُؤْكِلَهُ، وَكَاتِبَهُ، وَشَاهِدَيْهِ»، وَقَالَ: «هُمْ سَوَاءٌ»".

(صحیح مسلم ، کتاب المساقات،3/1219، دار احیاء التراث ، بیروت)

(قوله لأنه يصير قمارا) لأن القمار من القمر الذي يزداد تارة وينقص أخرى، وسمي القمار قمارا لأن كل واحد من المقامرين ممن يجوز أن يذهب ماله إلى صاحبه، ويجوز أن يستفيد مال صاحبه وهو حرام بالنص.
