Starting a new company while working for someone

Answered as per Hanafi Fiqh by Muftionline.co.za

Q: Can I start a new company while working for another company without disturbing the current employers. Should I inform the employers or stop working? Kindly advise.

Bismillaah

A: As long as the work of the new company is not done in the time you have dedicated to the previous company.

You do not have to inform them.

And Allah Ta’ala (الله تعالى) knows best.
