Income of a salesperson who swipes customers credit cards

· 9 Shaʻban 1445 AH1 min readEnglish

Question

I work for company called NEXT who’s CEO has political support for Israel.

Also the company provides a credit card for the customers which has interest in it as well. As I work as a sales girl I have to be on the counter/till while on the till sometimes I have to take the credit cards from the customers as their means of payment.

Can you please tell me if my earning is halaal?

Answer

If the items you are selling are permissible, then your income will be halaal.

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