Question:<\/u><\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

I wanted to ask if my money is haram. I worked at a hospital where they have a restaurant. I worked there as a waiter and brought people their food. But sometimes I also had to give them sausage which was pork, I didn’t have to give alcohol or other haram things only sometimes pork<\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

In the name of Allah, the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful<\/u><\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Answer:<\/u><\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

In the Holy Qur\u2019an Allah (SWA) has said:<\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

\u201cO people eat of what is permissible and good in the earth.\u201d [1]<\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

One should work in such an environment where his income is 100% halal. Two conditions need to be found to determine if the work is lawful or not;<\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

The nature of the work is lawful if more than 50% of the income is halal.<\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Bearing all this in mind and taking into consideration your question we can conclude that working as a waiter for such a restaurant would entail earning more than 50% halal since you will be delivering mainly halal products. However, you should still make effort to look for a job which does not involve handling haram. In the meantime, to keep this job and work in such an environment would be permissible.<\/span><\/p>\n
