Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner:
May Allah reward you. Your Eminence the Shaykh, this is Salim. He says: Is it permissible for a married scholarship student at the Islamic University to work, because his stipend is not sufficient for him? Is it permissible for a scholarship student who comes from abroad to the Islamic University to work, because his stipend is not sufficient for him?
The Shaykh:
That he works.
The questioner:
Yes.
The Shaykh:
Do you mean he works for a wage? Yes, if this does not interfere with seeking knowledge, there is nothing wrong with it. If this work does not interfere with seeking knowledge, there is nothing wrong with it. He used to work during his free time, during official holidays, or something like that. There is nothing wrong with it. Yes.
