    Bismillah hir-Rahman nir-Rahim !

    (Fatwa: 997/846=D/1430)

     

    In view of the abovementioned two work conditions, there is nothing wrong in working and receiving salary from these organizations provided the organizations are not harming Islam and Muslims with the help of your work and the local Ulama, who are well aware of the situation, do not regard working for these organizations as wrong.
