YOGYAKARTA The government provides wage subsidies (BSU) assistance to workers or laborers who have salaries below Rp3,500,000. Many people welcome the distribution of social assistance. However, some people question the law of accepting BSU in Islam because it is feared that there will be inaccuracy of the target recipients. On the other hand, recipients who are not entitled but still use BSU are feared to be less blessed.

Basically, the assistance provided by the government always has measurable goals. To achieve this goal, the government will be really selective in determining who is entitled to be the recipient. Unfortunately in its application, mistakes can sometimes be unavoidable.

In the case of BSU distribution, the risk of error in the data on recipients of wage subsidies still exists. People who should be very capable of financially impairment get this assistance for spree. Such cases need to be considered by Muslims in the case of BSU distribution.

Reporting from NU Online, capable people whose positions are outside the subsidy target but iktu take subsidies from the government closely called ghasab. This behavior is considered a disgraceful crime as well as forbidden.

This means that people who are actually not entitled to it but receive BSU and even use it are considered crimes. On the other hand, if the BSU recipient is according to the criteria from the government, the humum is abah or permissible.

Still from the same source, in Islam there are at least two criteria that are allowed to receive government assistance, namely as follows.

The government has distributed BSU funds with the aim of maintaining the purchasing power of workers and laborers. In order for BSU funds to be able to bring blessings to users, there are several tips that can be done, namely as a joke.

BSU funds are advised to meet the needs of the family so that they are always blessed and bring good benefits. These needs can be used to pay for schools, buy basic necessities, and so on.

It is recommended that BSU funds be used to shop at MSME stores. Spending money on MSMEs indirectly helps keep the lower economy moving. You can buy groceries at MSMEs, or buy fruit at fruit stores around your house.

It is forbidden for Muslims to spend their wealth on things that are deviant or negative. An example of deviant spending is buying alcohol, for a slot gambling topup, or to rent an LC at a karaoke place. Spending wealth in a haram way will make sustenance not a blessing.
