The ruling on working in hotels.
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner : There is a young man who works in a hotel. Is his salary forbidden or lawful? Please, in hotels in Amman. May Allah make you happy.
The Shaykh : May Allah bless you. This varies from one hotel to another, and we cannot answer this question without some detail. If the hotel where this young man works, as you say, is free from evil, such as serving intoxicants to the guests or those staying at the hotel, or bringing in prostitutes or the like, then his earnings are lawful. If it is not so, then it is forbidden. Yes.
