The answer

It is not permissible to work on the first project, which involves building private housing for employees of the nightclub and casino, as it falls under the suspicion of cooperating in sin and aggression.

Similarly, it is not permissible to work on the second project, due to its inclusion of building places of worship for churches under their supervision, or building orphanages for Muslim orphans under the supervision of the church with the aim of Christianizing them, as this also entails cooperation in sin and aggression.

A Muslim must be cautious in matters of religion and avoid ambiguities in earnings. "And whoever fears Allah - He will make for him a way out and will provide for him from where he does not expect."
