Question:
Assalmualaikum E-shaykh,
I work in the retail industry and i can’t be home by 7pm. Would it advisable for me to switch to a part time position where i can be home by 7pm but that would mean a huge pay cut but with Maulana’s advise on the coming of Imam Mahdi. Would it advisable for me to make that switch ?
Answer:
wa `alaykum salam,
See the suhbat Clarification about Being Outside after Dark where Mawlana Shaykh Muhammad Nazim al-Haqqani says:
“You can’t follow Islamic rules (in the west). But as much as possible you must keep (the order) not to be outside after Maghrib. We say only those who have responsibilities may work, but for women, we can’t say anything. We are saying…”
Mawlana Shaykh Hisham: “There are nurses, Sayyidee; most hospitals have nurses…?”
Mawlana Shaykh Nazim: “They are not going to dancing places! Work is there. May Allah forgive us.”
