Question

A man proposes for a woman, and both are satisfied with the proposal. He has a business where he sells equipment as a living, primarily CCTV camera systems. He has also sold DJ equipment (exact details are not known) on 2 occasions. My questions are as follows:

1. Is the selling of CCTV camera systems permissible?

2. Is the selling of DJ equipment permissible?

3. Is his income halal, and would it be permissible for the woman to go ahead and accept his proposal?

Answer

1. Precaution requires that he does not sell this.

2. No.

3. When he has not given up this haraam then the household will be involved in haraam activity.

And Allah Ta'ala (الله تعالى) knows best.
