Is it permissible to work as a truck driver transporting live chickens to a slaughterhouse that slaughters them without uttering the name of Allah?

1 min readAlso available in العربية

If a Muslim knows that a slaughterhouse kills chickens without a lawful Islamic slaughter (tazkiyah), then it is not permissible for him to assist them in this by transporting (chickens) to them. This is because it falls under the ruling of aiding in sin. Assisting in the killing of an animal that is permissible to eat without slaughtering it (properly) is forbidden. It is also not permissible to sell or rent something when the seller or lessor knows that the buyer will use it to disobey Allah.
