Question
In U.K., due to the extreme cold, water pipes sometimes burst. A company charges a monthly fee of 5 pounds to repair pipes whenever they burst. There is no additional cost. Is it permissible?
Answer
The monthly fee is an insurance premium. The deal is an insurance one, hence not permissible.
