    Bismillah hir-Rahman nir-Rahim !

    (Fatwa: 691/636=D/1429)

     

    It is not a good thing for women to do jobs in offices. They will have to face strange men (non-mahram) though in veil. She will have to talk and deal with each other which are the things of fitna (evils). A father is committed to provide maintenance to his daughter and a husband is asked to provide maintenance to his wife. So, there is no need for women to do jobs which always pose harms and mischief.   

    Allah (Subhana Wa Ta'ala) knows Best
