Is money earned from renting a shop used for serving shisha considered unlawful? And does sin befall the father or the daughter who eats from this money, or from the money of the father's government job in which the required work is not fully accomplished, or from the money of goods imported from China on which "Made in England" is written?

The questioner's father erred in allowing the tenant to sell shisha, and he must repent and compel the tenant to stop selling it. As for the rent, it is not forbidden if the lease contract was for permissible beverages. The employee's salary is lawful if he adheres to his work hours and duties; otherwise, he is only entitled to compensation for the work he performs. Selling goods with counterfeit labels is deception and forgery. It is permissible for the questioner to benefit from her father's mixed wealth.
