If one completes his studies to be promoted in his job, does he receive reward for completing his studies?
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner : An employee was told: If you obtain such and such a certificate, your salary will be increased by such and such. Does he receive reward for completing his studies?
The Shaykh : By analogy to what?
The questioner : For completing the studies to obtain this salary increase?
The Shaykh : Is this study a religious study, or is it a worldly study like engineering or the like? If it is the former, if it is the former, it is not permissible. And if it is the latter, there is no harm. Yes.
And with this, this session ends, until another meeting, if Allah wills, Blessed and Exalted is He. And all praise is due to Allah, Lord of the worlds. And may Allah send prayers and blessings upon our Prophet Muhammad, and upon his family and his Companions, and those who follow them with excellence until the Day of Judgment.
