The ruling on the money from cafes that serve shisha and tobacco?

Question:
This questioner, Shaykh Salih, says: A friend of mine, whom I have advised many times, owns a coffee shop where he serves shisha. What is the ruling on the money that comes into this cafe from the employees?

Answer:
This is a mixture of lawful and forbidden, because shisha, tobacco, qat, and mu'assel, as they call it, none of these are permissible. They are forbidden because they are intoxicants and also harmful to health and the body. Therefore, it is not permissible to take, it is not permissible to work in the place, and it is not permissible to take a wage for it because it is forbidden. So do not allow it to be done in your shop; prevent it and restrict yourself to what Allah the Exalted has made lawful. Yes.
