Pretending to be professional graphic designer
Question
I work in a company which works for streamers and youtubers and provide them gaming stuff. They also do vector art and make animals logo which is prohibited. My work is only that to sell that logo but to the client I pretend to be professional graphic designer though I am not! So I just want to ask that is it permissible to do so?
Answer
To pretend to be what you are not is not right. However, if you know graphic designing then it is permissible for you to show yourself at the level that you know it.
And Allah Ta'ala (الله تعالى) knows best.

Fatawa SA is an independent, read-only index of fatawa already published by Mufti Online — Madrasah Ta'leemuddeen. It is not a fatwa service. For your own situation, ask the issuing Darul Ifta directly.
