f:719 -    Accepting payment for Haram products
Country : Australia,
Name : Syed Hussaini Pasha
Question:     I work in a petrol pump in Australia.  There is a shop also there.  My job is to accept payment for products which customers take.  Some of those products are forbidden.  Are my earnings Halal?


............................................................................
Answer:     If you accept payment for petrol and other lawful products, then there is no problem at all and your earnings are absolutely lawful.  If you can talk to the management about the forbidden products and make some arrangement wherein you are not concerned at all with sale of the forbidden products, then these earnings are lawful for you.

However, if there is no chance of escaping being involved in the sale/payment acceptance of the forbidden products, then this is impermissible.  You please search for some other lawful job.  Almighty Allah is the One who provides sustenance.

And Allah knows best.
