Is it permissible to work for a disbeliever?

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Is it permissible to work for a disbeliever?

Answer:
It is permissible in cases of dire necessity if you are in need, and the work is not service to the disbeliever but rather independent and separate work, such as building a wall or doing something that does not involve serving the disbeliever or providing him with service, but is independent work that you perform and for which he pays you a wage. There is nothing wrong with that.
