Question
I got a job as a cook at a pizza restaurant. The problem is that besides non-halal beef, I have to cook with pork as well. Is the earning halal? I personally don’t think so and am really worried about what to do?
Answer
We believe that your concern is really commendable. However, you do not need to leave the job. We are not allowed to eat pork. We naturally dislike serving or cooking it. But we have to earn a living and when we do not have any other job we can do such things. I would ask you to keep doing the job. Your intentions are known to Allah. He will bless you for your concern and will InshaAllah give you a better job.
