Question:
The tea, as far as he is able, is only in the magazines that call to the worship of Allah and His Messenger, and likewise the Shia are sincere in their faith in the storefront, not comparing some of them among the customers, and what can be purchased from these stores.
Answer:
This is an abomination. Selling forbidden items, such as magazines and tobacco, and other forbidden things, is an abomination that must be refuted. I advise the one who does it that the price of forbidden items is forbidden. Indeed, when Allah forbids something, He forbids its price. The price of the three loose women is forbidden, and selling them, their price is forbidden. Tobacco is forbidden, and its price is forbidden. Whatever Allah has forbidden, its price is forbidden. The Muslim must fear Allah and not let the devil say to him, "If you put these things out, the customers will buy them, and the customers will be interested in your store." This is from the devil. He must fear Allah to remove these forbidden items, and in the lawful there is a way out from the forbidden. And whoever fears Allah, He will make a way out for him and provide for him from where he does not expect. Yes.
