Summary

The ruling on doing business or working under a non-Muslim-owned company depends on the nature of the company's business activities. If the activities are permissible in Islam, working there is permissible. If the activities are prohibited, working in the company is also prohibited.

Written in our own words from the original fatwa — check the source before acting on it.

Jika aktiviti perniagaan syarikat itu harus di sisi Islam, maka harus hukumnya bekerja di situ.
