The ruling on working in a charitable organization that displays pictures of the afflicted
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner:
May Allah reward you. Honorable Shaykh, this questioner says: I am a person in need of work. While I was searching for a job in charitable organizations, I noticed that they hang pictures of suffering Muslims on every wall of the organization. The question is: Is it permissible for me to work in such charitable organizations or not?
The Shaykh:
They claim that hanging these pictures encourages Muslims to help them, but this is a wrong method because hanging pictures is not permissible. The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) refused to enter a house that had pictures hanging in it and did not enter it until they were removed. So they should encourage people to give charity and express their disavowal without pictures, using verses and hadiths and explaining the statements and needs of these people.
The presenter:
May Allah reward you. Honorable Shaykh Habib, and this
The Shaykh:
If they remove these pictures, work with them. If they do not remove them, do not work with them; do not enter this place.
