Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
He says: I am an employee and I attend during work hours. If there is no work, I look for a place and sleep in it until the end of the workday. What is the ruling on that?

Answer:
No, it is not permissible for you to sleep. You sit in the workplace. You sit in the workplace and wait. If work comes, you work; otherwise, you sit. You prepare yourself, sit in the place, and look for work. As for you sleeping, going to another place, and sleeping there, no, that is not permissible.
