There are no mosques near the farm; should he give up his work on the farm?
Question: 146574
Do I have to cancel the contract between me and the owner of the farm because there are no mosques here in this place? Or should I go back to work and there will be no sin on me?.
Praise be to Allah, and peace and blessings be upon the Messenger of Allah and his family.
You do not have to cancel your contract, and you can stay
on the farm. This is permissible provision so long as you are doing
acceptable work and earning a halaal income. Praise Allah, may He be
glorified and exalted, offer the prayers on time, say the adhaan and
iqaamah, maintain your religious commitment and be of good cheer, even if
you are on your own. Praise be to Allah. End quote.
Shaykh ‘Abd al-‘Azeez ibn Baaz (may Allah have mercy on him)
