Question:
Your Eminence, the questioner says: I work as an accountant in a company that sells women’s clothing. Some of this clothing is covering, while some is tight and transparent. Is the money I earn from this job of the type of mixed money?
Answer:
Selling clothing that is not modest is forbidden for you to sell. Do not sell it; refrain from selling it. Sell the covering clothing and the permissible clothing. Do not sell the clothing that has no good in it, and then say, “My money is mixed.” No, from the beginning, refrain; refrain from selling it. If he refuses, look for someone else to do it, or… [At-Talaq 65:2-3] Seek your provision from someone other than this person. Yes.

Whoever leaves something for the sake of Allah, Allah replaces it with something better for him,
ترك شيئا لله عوضه الله خيرا منه،And whoever fears Allah - He will make for him a way out (3) And will provide for him from where he does not expect.
وَمَن يَتَّقِ اللَّهَ يَجْعَل لَّهُ مَخْرَجًا وَيَرْزُقْهُ مِنْ حَيْثُ لَا يَحْتَسِبُ
