Working for a Brewery

Q: Is it permissible to work for SA Breweries as an Admin Clerk or Accountant in their offices?

A: It is not permissible to do any work for a company that manufactures and/or sells liquor. If one is already in such an employ, he or she should look out for an alternate employment as a matter of urgency. Once another job is found one should immediately resign, regardless of the perks or payouts that may be lost, and notwithstanding a drop in salary and income. Allah puts people to test in this world. When they pass the test, He then opens up His Doors of Mercy and Rizq upon them. In earning a halaal income, one is assured of blessings all the time. Working for a Brewery is living constantly under the curse of Allah, which was sounded for people involved in wine and wine making.
