And upon you be peace.

May Allah keep you in good health, Shaykh. I have a question.
The Shaykh:
May Allah welcome you.

Go ahead, go ahead with the question. Question. Yes. What is the ruling on Saudization in private sector companies? You work while sitting at home, and they pay you a monthly rent. Thank you.
The Shaykh:
This is a trick and a lie, and tricks and lies are not permissible. The government wants Saudis to be employed in businesses, to carry them out, and to receive salaries; that is what the state wants. That is the meaning of Saudization. As for tricks and lies, they are not permissible. Yes.
