Guiding others to a liquor store

Q 1: I was in Britain washing my clothes in a public laundry when two young Englishmen asked me where they could purchase Khamr (intoxicant). Subsequently, I directed them to the place. What is the ruling on what I did? May Allah forgive me! Is this considered cooperation in sin? What is the Kaffarah (expiation) for this?I should mention that I have repented and regretted it. May Allah accept from me!


A: You should seek Allah's Forgiveness for what you have done in guiding the young men to the liquor store. This is a form of cooperation in sin and transgression, and you should not repeat such an act. Accordingly, making Tawbah (repentance to Allah) is sufficient in this case.May Allah grant us success. May peace and blessings be upon our Prophet Muhammad, his family, and Companions.
