Source: FtawySummarized from the full answer at Ftawy · imported Sep 2, 2026
Working as a restaurant waiter is permissible unless it necessitates unlawful mixing with women or serving prohibited items such as alcoholic beverages and pork, otherwise it would be forbidden.
If the work is permissible, then traveling for it is permissible, and it is allowed to shorten prayers during it until returning to the place of residence, unless one stays along the way with a stay that severs the ruling of travel.
