    I am a chartered accountant by profession and have been facing a dilemma. During my articleship (on job training) I have been mostly posted at different types of financial institutions. Now that I have decided to enter the industry, my CV shows significant experience of banking and other financial institutions. This has resulted in most of the job offers being made by different banks to me. In this regard, what I want to ask is (i) Is there any permissibility for working as an employee with the bank in the capacity of an accountant or auditor? (ii) What is your view on Islamic banks and is it allowed to join an Islamic bank in the above-mentioned capacities?

    Muslims in Toronto are facing a new challenge these days regarding jumuah salat timings. A few of the masjids here have started jumuah congregation before zuhr timings, as we are observing Daylight Saving Timing these days. Let me write you detail of timings: Today is September 08, 2008 Sunrise : 06:49 AM Sunset: 07:41 PM Zuhr salat time starts: 01:18 PM The masjids that are observing early jumuah prayer are conducting it at 12:30 PM. When some people went to one of the three local scholars who allowed early salat for an explanation of this act, he told that we don’t find any specific timing mentioned for jumuah prayer so we can do this as it is lunch time and in this way more people can easily attend jumuah congregation. Secondly, he told that the early timings of jumuah was also observed by the sahabah, so we can also do it as well. Please reply in detail and mention any early jumuah congregation from Quran, Hadith or Sahabah.
