I am a government employee, and we have an internet service. I want to register with the Real Estate Development Fund. Is it permissible for me to register at my workplace during my free time?

Meaning, do you use the device or machine for your personal interests? Yes. This is not permissible. This machine is for work and for the job; it is not permissible to use it for your personal interests. If you leave the office, go to the merchant or to the one you deal with, and conclude the contract with him. Yes.
