Question:
A questioner asks: I work as a driver and transport shipments of intoxicants. Now I have reformed, and my brothers advised me to leave this job and find another. I am supporting a large family.
Answer:
Yes, this is not permissible for you. The Messenger (peace and blessings be upon him) cursed the intoxicant, the one who carries it, and the one to whom it is carried. You become cursed if you carry it; you become cursed. So avoid it and seek your provision in something else. Yes.
