Q: Is it a sin to conceal one's actual income to the government to avoid paying exorbitant taxes?
A: It is not a sin to conceal your proper income. However, one must avoid all such actions which bring disgrace upon one. Rasulullah (Sallallaahu
?layhi Wasallam) said, 'It is not proper for a believer to disgrace himself.
' (Tirmidhi)
