The ruling on working for someone depends on the source of their wealth. If all their wealth comes from unlawful sources, such as usury (riba), then it is impermissible to work for them. However, if their wealth is a mixture of lawful and unlawful, it is more cautious to refrain from working for them and to seek another job that is free from any doubt.
