Question
I was offered a job that starts in the middle of the night and ends after sunrise. Is this allowed, or is it forbidden to work there because it coincides with the time for prayer?
Answer
Shalom and blessings
It is permitted to work there. Ensure that you finish work in time to recite the Shema and pray at the appropriate times.
