This is  boosting economy. This causes their business to flourish. The question  that I have is this. Can a Muslim Government proceed with Non-Islamic  ways of providing entertainment to Non-Muslim tourist? Of course doing  this will encourage locals as well to engage into all these vices but in  principal can politics interfere with Islam especially in economy.<\/p>\n<h3>Answer<\/h3>\n<p>We  think that there are legal rulings in Islam which are based on some  religious percept and belief like for example prayer and fasting. There  are also rulings which hinge upon certain other things like for example  wudu which is necessary for the prayer. Then there are rulings which are  based on moral principles. Zina is a moral sin. In the case of the  former the believers can entertain others by offering them food in  Ramadan and prayer place for Christians, for example. However in the  case of the latter rulings it is not allowable to any believer, ruler or  commoner, to offer anything like that.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Answered by:<\/strong> Tariq Mahmood Hashmi<\/p>\n<p><strong>Date:<\/strong> 2015-01-18<\/p>\n<button class=\"simplefavorite-button\" data-postid=\"6543\" data-siteid=\"1\" data-groupid=\"1\" data-favoritecount=\"0\" style=\"\">Favorite <i class=\"sf-icon-star-empty\"><\/i><\/button>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>In  a country like Turkey, Government offers booze, bars, night clubs, and  massage parlors and allows sluts for incoming foreign tourists.
