Question:
Assalaamu Alai Kum Wa Rehmatullahi wa Barabkatahu,
I have applied for a job in which I claimed 2 years experience which I don’t have because company’s are not hiring freshers and from last 1.5 years I am jobless. It’s been 8 months since I completed the course. So it is permissible to apply like this? If I get the job is the money which I get haraam or halaal? So please, what should do? I am very much in trouble and I am in need of job. Please help me out on this. I will be very thankful. If Shaykh Sidi Hisham Kabbani Effendi personally make dua for me I will be grateful.
Answer:
Wa`alaykumussalam,
Be honest in your application. A lie will lead to another, and your employers may find that out. Recite Hasbiyallah wa Ni’mal Wakeel 100x daily with intention to find a good job.
