Q: In
Algeria
there is a corporation that produces beverages made from orange, apple, and lemon. However, it also produces
wines and beer. What is the ruling
on working in this corporation? I will quit my job until I know whether it is Halal (lawful) or not. Please notify me and show the evidence.
A:
There is nothing wrong with the lawful good beverages produced by the corporation. On the other hand, the evil intoxicant beverages produced by the same corporation are Haram (prohibited). Therefore, you should avoid working in this place as helping it in the lawful activities falls under helping in the other forbidden activities. Allah (Glorified and Exalted be He) forbids cooperating in sin and aggression, as He says,
Help you one another in Al-Birr and At-Taqwâ (virtue, righteousness and piety); but do not help one another in sin and transgression. And fear Allâh. Verily, Allâh is Severe in punishment.
