Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
He says: Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success. He says: Is it permissible to use the internet during work, such as reading news and for personal purposes, given that the cost of this service was paid in advance by the workplace and the management is aware of it?
Answer:
If this occupies you from performing the work and fulfilling the job, it is not permissible, even if the manager has granted you permission. Finish your work, finish your time, and devote your time to the work without mixing anything else with it, because you are receiving money in exchange for this work. Do not waste any of the time on reading the internet or anything else. Yes.
