Assalaam alaykum warahmatullah.

I want to ask the brothers & sisters , what kind of jobs have they got?

Also, are there jobs out there , where i could work for an 'islamic institution' or in an environment where it is full of practising muslims?

So far i have been suggested, teacher at islamic school, journalist for islamic magazine .

I also am a keen historian , so is there any jobs out there for a person like me?

I want to work in an intellectual environment , rather than working amongst kuffar in a normal kafir Company.

Please let me know if there are any kind of jobs that would suit me.
Either here or UK.

jazakallah kahirun.

walykum salaam

Well, if the Gulf countries, with all their opportunties, had the same immigration access as the US, then we'd all be able to get ideal jobs!

I would love to work for a Muslim company.  The only problem is like Jannah said, they don't pay you enough to get by and there are very few positions.  Teachers especially get cheated.

Well check this out.  know of a particular software house that is owned by a practising Muslim, and whose employees include practising Muslims. Time off for salaah & jumu'ah is part of your employment package, and they have one specific Muslim who comes in to give the employees da'wah, encourage them to stick to the way of righteousness and who is a counsellor too. So if they have any thing they need to discuss and get advice about from an Islamic perspective, he fills that gap too.

Alhumdulillah, may many more orgs rise up like this Ameen.

Assalamu Alaikum,

To tell you the truth I have no clue. I have been looking for a job myself and it is hard for me to find one. Not that there are no jobs available around where I live, but because I am a Muslim woman, I would prefer working in an environment that is not full of kuffar and is a quite and peaceful area.
So, if anyone has any other suggestions, please tell me.
