Working in the freight services business


370

A: Your work in clearing the imported goods and finishing the procedures for a wage, whether it was of little or much amount, is permissible in itself because it implies cooperation to do good. Yet in this case of yours it is forbidden due to its being mixed with (Part No. 23; Page No. 489) lying and fraud.Accordingly, it is not permissible for you to continue in this work. There are many ways to earn lawful money, and whoever sacrifices something for the Sake of Allah, Allah will compensate him with what is better than what he has sacrificed. Almighty Allah says: And whosoever fears Allâh and keeps his duty to Him, He will make a way for him to get out (from every difficulty). And He will provide him from (sources) he never could imagine. And whosoever puts his trust in Allâh, then He will suffice him. May Allah grant us success and peace and blessings be upon our Prophet and his family and companions!
