Guidelines for a Woman Working Outside Her Home

Question:
Shaykh Salih, peace be upon you. He says: Peace be upon you. And upon you be peace. Shaykh Salih, I want to offer a piece of advice, may Allah forgive you and your parents, to those who push women into working among men and displaying them on television channels. And to those who seek to contravene the Shari'ah in such matters, especially in our country. We seek help from Allah. Thank you. May Allah reward you with good.

Answer:
My brother, a woman works in a job that is fitting for her, one that does not conflict with her modesty and her covering, and does not mix her with men. She does the work appropriate for her with modesty. This is how the women of the Muslims used to work from the time of the Messenger (peace and blessings be upon him). They worked with modesty, maintaining their covering, and staying away from free mixing of men and women.
As for what some Westernizers do, who want to turn our society into the customs and traditions of the West, these people are of no account and are not to be heeded. We are Muslims, praise be to Allah, we have our religion, our dignity, and our character. We do not bring in the vile and corrupt customs of the West and spread them in our lands and among our women. Yes.
