Aslam

general Sign in to save

I work in the restaurant business (12 hour shifts) and I am constantly dirtied by pork products. What are my salaat requirements? Can I perform all five prayers as athaa at the end of the day, after I have bathed?

Praise be to Allah.You have to do the five prayers at the proper times,

after removing the najaasah (impure things) from yourself and purifying

yourself as Allaah has commanded. You should also look for another job

from which you can earn halaal provision, because cooking and serving

pork is haraam and is not allowed. (See Questins #s 1883,

751).

May Allaah help us and you to do all that pleases

Him, and keep us away from things which will earn His anger and wrath.
