Question:
He says: Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success. He says: I work in a hall that contains about forty employees, most of whom are smokers. Also, some of them play music in this place, and there is cursing and insulting among them. His question is: Should I be patient until I find another job, or is it obligatory for me to leave this job?
Answer:
Do not leave this job and remain unemployed while you are in need. Stay with the job, disapprove of the wrongs, and give advice, while seeking another job. Yes.
