Answer
It is not permissible to take out insurance if one is not required by law to do so. However, you may recover the premiums paid and use them as you wish.

Fatawa SA is an independent, read-only index of fatawa already published by Darul Iftaa Mahmudiyyah (AskImam). It is not a fatwa service. For your own situation, ask the issuing Darul Ifta directly.
