Question

Is it permissible to work in a conventional bank?

Answer

Jobs that directly involve recording, processing, calculating or witnessing interest-based transactions are impermissible, as they amount to assisting in riba. Some genuinely unrelated roles may be permissible; the specific job description should be presented to a mufti for a ruling.
