The answer

Working for a company that manufactures computers used for displaying pornographic films is considered aiding in sin and transgression, and it contradicts the words of Allah Almighty: "And cooperate in righteousness and piety, but do not cooperate in sin and aggression." A Muslim must abandon what Allah has forbidden, for whoever abandons something for the sake of Allah, Allah will compensate him with something better, as Allah Almighty said: "And whoever fears Allah - He will make for him a way out and will provide for him from where he does not expect." It is advisable to seek a means of livelihood in Muslim countries.
