dboY1123: DO NOT permit anyone to mix their religion with their work duties. DO NOT permit anyone to sleep with an Alfa in the pretense of prayer. DO NOT permit anyone to chase you out of your own business-space in order to sleep with an Alfa in your business-space. 3 Likes |

Hi dboY1123, please ignore the bigots in the comment section. Religion is a sensitive topic and many are too brazen to inconvenient others with their worship or are too quick to be bigots. She is wrong to recite her prayers with a non employee at her workplace. Depending on the kind of business, her recitation can be done silently/and discreetly during downtime. For example if she is a store assistant, it won't affect her job performance but as a bank teller, it is not possible. For her prayers, you can divide her breaks into two and use them for her prayers. What she did when she wanted to pray is wrong, you are right to offended. She shouldn't have done that. If there is a corner or inner space she can use for her prayers and you don't mind. You can let her use it. It will saves time going back and forth from the mosque if it is far. And frankly, it doesn't remove from you if she can be discreet and polite about her worship. May God continue to bless you. 4 Likes |

Ask her to resign, employ a new person and set strict work rules. You have already messed up with her, if you introduce new rules, she would sabotage your business. dboY1123: 2 Likes |

You should have spelt out your "shop policy" which must, in any case, leave you fully in charge. All I can ask you to do is *take charge* simple! |

kernniejay: For most Muslims "I want to pray" is a statement that can excuse almost anything in the world. In fact if they have just beheaded your child in front of you, they believe "I want to pray" is a get-out-of-jail-free-card that means everyone who hears that statement must immediately back off. Muslims will routinely leave their desks at work no matter the urgency of what is before them on account that "I want to pray." Its the height of irresponsible BS. 3 Likes |

No need for comparison on whether a Muslim would allow such from a Christian so you need just do you morally and just.

[quote author=DispatcherLagos post=112004771]Hmmmmmmm. Your employee asked you to leave your shop for her so that she can pray? This is the beginning. Shortly, they will send you out of the shop to claim ownership. Idiot. Your employee asked you to excuse her to enable her pray. You don't know that that is going to extreme. 3 Likes |

dboY1123:Freedom of Religion is Sancrosanct but it's Your shop. She is an employee thus You have every right to decide rules of engagement. If there is mosque around, she can go and pray there all you need to do is give her the liberty and agreed timeframe to come back. If there is no mosque give her the chance to look for a secluded place to perform her obligations towards her God, Almighty Allah(Swt, Azw). If inside your shop is the only place, kindly allow her to serve her God and it's more beneficial to you too than a toxic employee and don't sack her in this hardtime except there is no compromise or a Fanatism is sensed. Anyway, the only bad thing you could do is to stop her from observing Salaat that infringement on her rights to freedom of religion, she can sue You I'm a Muslim anyway. |

Na how dem take destroy 9ja be that. Always bringing religion into business. I don't care if you're a Christian or Buddhist, if you can't abide by my rules, i simply connect you to your religious leaders, that way u will have more time for prayers while I make money. 3 Likes |

IgweBUIKE1: Chill sir.. something I noticed is that 70% of people on this page now are just children given the privilege to have a phone My question to this same guy Imagine you giving me a job in your business firm, and I come in the next day with my pastor telling you I have a special prayer to do. How will you feel I’ve spent years in the north where Islam is with high esteem From op’s story he never said he didn’t give her the space to go to the mosque. What could prompt her to bring her private prayer partner. Abi her father in Islam to another person’s shop 1 Like |

I have an employee who is a Muslim. Very hardworking and responsible. I give her the free hand to go for prayers. However, she uses her discretion to determine when to go for prayers. She doesn't go when customers are present. She doesn't ask me to excuse her for prayers or to attend to private matters. I discuss issues with her from time to time. Especially late coming and customers ethics I hope that helps. |

GloriousGbola: Many - across several multinational companies: many non-Nigerian Muslims inclusive, mainly from other African countries and the Middle-East. I was surprised, years ago, when I worked for a European Telecom company, to note that one of the meeting rooms in the office was converted into a make-shift mosque, strewn with prayer mats. I thought it was entirely unacceptable and unprofessional, but there was nothing anyone could do. The HR didnt want to "offend" Islam. |
