As for earning a living from the work

Q 5: Is it permissible to work in factories that produce wine? Q 6: Is it permissible to work in factories of canning bacon or any other kind of meat that exists in France? Is it permissible to work as an accountant in one of the usurious banks?


A 5,6,7: It is not permissible to work in factories that produce wine. Whether carrying the grapes to or in the factory, pressing wine, packing, shipping, storing, or fixing its machines, etc., as this entails co-operation in sin. The same ruling is applied to canning bacon and working in usurious banks. Allah (Exalted be He) says, ...but do not help one another in sin and transgression. And fear Allâh. Verily, Allâh is Severe in punishment. May Allah grant us success. May peace and blessings be upon our Prophet Muhammad, his family, and Companions.
