Question

I work in a company that has 8 chinese restaurants and 2 community centers. Owner is religious. He forces staffs for prayers. We have no female and non muslim staffs. Smoking and alcohol is not allowed. My post is Heado of Admin. But some sins are occured here, for examle, marriage ceremonry, birthday party, marriage day etc. Even regular customers also come mixed male and female. But I am not involved in customer dealings. I stay in office. So is there any problem in my income with this company?

Answer

In the Name of Allah, the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful.

As-salāmu ‘alaykum wa-rahmatullāhi wa-barakātuh.

Your income from the company in references is halal. It may be beneficial to raise your concern of the sinful acts with the owner as he is religious and will take heed to the concerns. Inshallah.

And Allah Ta’āla Knows Best
