The ruling on working in a shop that sells mu'assel
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner:
This questioner says: Honorable Shaykh, I work in a shop that sells mu'assel. Is it forbidden, given that I have looked for other work to make a living and found none? May Allah reward you with good.
The Shaykh:
Mu'assel is a lie; it is not mu'assel. Honey is good, but this is a filthy substance, called a filthy substance. That was the appropriate name for it. It is forbidden and not permissible, because it is a narcotic. It is stronger than tobacco, and the scholars' words have nearly converged on prohibiting it. So the mu'assel they call a filthy substance is stronger than tobacco. Yes.
The presenter:
May Allah reward you with good, O generous one.
The Shaykh:
You say that you have not found anything, but this is not correct. Allah the Exalted has made sustenance ample and the avenues of earning wide, but you have not sought it. And Allah the Exalted says:[At-Talaq 65:2-3]

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
