What is the ruling on working for an international charitable organization that intervenes in global disaster areas, knowing that the contract requires intervention in all parts of the world without religious, ethnic, or political discrimination? Is it permissible, according to Sharia, to intervene to assist non-Muslims in their disaster areas? What is the Sharia-compliant advice regarding signing this contract?

The basic principle is the permissibility of dealing with non-Muslims. Working with these organizations may achieve benefits, such as inviting non-Muslims to Islam or teaching Muslims matters of their religion, and it may avert harms. There is no objection to working with them if you are secure from temptation regarding your religion, while avoiding its causes like seclusion and unlawful mixing. Cooperate with the Muslims there for good. If you see signs of temptation, then hasten to leave the work. "And whoever fears Allah - He will make for him a way out And will provide for him from where he does not expect."
