Question

Is it permissible for a Muslim to write a fiction book with non-Muslims characters? And as long as the book doesn't contain anything which disagrees with Islam, or is forbidden, will the money earned by publishing the book be halal?

Answer

Until we do not know what are the aims and goals we cannot comment.

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