The ruling on hiring non-Muslim workers
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner:
Yes. May Allah do you good, Honorable Shaykh Salih. A second question, Shaykh, may Allah preserve you. I have non-Muslim workers working for me in my workshop. Is it permissible for the employer to hire them if they are non-Muslims?
The Shaykh:
Yes, it is not permissible to bring non-Muslims into the lands of the Muslims. And praise be to Allah, there are many Muslim workers who are in need. So, hire from the Muslim workforce, and do not hire from the disbelieving workforce. Yes.
