Question

I would like to ask a question about 'trust and efforts'. Is it appropriate to take out life insurance or various health insurances so that in the event of death or serious illness, the family does not need public assistance? Is there a difference in this between a person who relies on God and one who, God forbid, does not? Thank you.

Answer

Hello,

Insurance that everyone commonly takes is considered a proper effort.

Insurance intended for distant cases depends on the person's situation and level of trust.

It is highly advisable to consult with a rabbi who knows you and can guide you personally, based on familiarity with your situation.
