The ruling on preferring a disbeliever over a Muslim for hiring in maintenance

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success. A questioner says: What is the ruling on preferring to hire a disbeliever over a Muslim for electrical repairs, plumbing, and the like? Is there any prohibition in that?

Answer:
It is permissible, but the Muslim is more deserving. The Muslim is more deserving so that the benefit goes to the Muslim; that is better. Yes.
