Question

i work in a company (where mosque is near) which doesnt allow me to go outside for salah except friday .....i pray my daily slaah either alone or some times in congregation on time .... shall i continue this job or leave it and search for another one?

Answer

In the Name of Allah, the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful.

As-salāmu ‘alaykum wa-rahmatullāhi wa-barakātuh.

You should continue your job. You and other Muslim employees of the company should seek a time to perform Salah in congregation at the work place.

And Allah Ta’āla Knows Best
