Career guidance and mentoring service (with clear boundaries, safeguarding, and confidentiality)

Evaluates the availability of non-clinical career guidance and mentoring. Guided by the principles of Naṣīḥah (sincere counsel) and Khidma (service), this service helps individuals align their careers with their Ahlīyah (competence). To ensure safety and religious integrity, the service operates under strict boundaries: it does not provide clinical counselling/psychotherapy, nor does it issue fatāwā (religious rulings). Where mental health needs arise, referrals are made to qualified providers. Islamic guidance focuses on work ethic and general principles, grounded in Sadd al-dharā’iʿ (blocking means to harm) to prevent boundary violations. Career guidance serves maqāṣid by developing skills (ḥifẓ al-‘aql) and lawful earning (ḥifẓ al-māl).
