			<description><![CDATA[Assalmaualeykum , My husband has a full beard and prays at work. He works as a machinist, factory style work with metal parts. Another brother we know works in a warehouse and also prays. I used to work for a leading online jewelry retailer with Orthodox Jews and they encouraged me not only to pray but to cover my head (as their women also cover!). So you never know, working with 10 Rabbis was where Allah put me. Now I am happily a stay at home with and mother and I think this is where I am most content, alhamdullillah. But yes, don\\\\\\\'t be afraid and some tips for me would include:_1) Go for the interview with a purpose. For me at the end of the interview I would use humour, and say something like well I really am ready to start this job, I like everything we talked about however there are two things I would like to talk about. 1) I don\\\\\\\'t shake hands with men but other than that I\\\\\\\'m normal :-)=]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[Everyone! You will be surprised what will happen when you nicely explain your needs [with Islam] in the job. If you tell them youre required to do this or that and not do this or that, by saying it nicely and without rudeness, they will probably not cause problems.__DO NOT BE AFRAID! Do what you have to do and the way will be made easy. People that give up their deen in order for work will find them treated badly by their boss. [Because they know they can make you give up anything]__When you show respect for yourself and your Lord, and nicely explain shortly what you must do and can't do, it will actually help.__There is a study [I can't link] where the same resumes are sent to different jobs, but one part say]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[MashAllah very well put together, i wanted to ask and if there can be another job to what are halal professions? if not halal how can we make it halal for us? i think it is also very important to see because 60 to 80% of the professions involve interest, either directly dealing with it or indirectly. if you can us with your knowledge in the light of Islam, ill be thankful. jazakAllah.]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[Assalamu alaikum, I totally agree with everyone on here. Its so difficult for the muslim brothers I see around the neighborhood who feel as if they can't keep a beard so they have to trim it or put it under their chin with a rubber band to keep it hidden, but there are those too with a]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[I think we [censored]ot to touch on the aspects of the beard. I for one, feel very much discriminated just by having the beard. I think most Muslims brothers think that jobs would have come by easier if they shave or crop their beard. In a sense that it could be true for jobs in the service sector. As much as we can try explain things, most will just refuse to hire, no matter how qualified. Allah knows best.]]></description>
