Source: FtawySummary from Ftawy's records · added here Sep 2, 2026
It is permissible to train for and work in serving permissible soft drinks, while avoiding serving alcoholic beverages. However, if one is compelled to serve alcohol or assist in its serving, then it is not permissible. And whoever fears Allah, He will make his matter easy and provide for him from where he does not expect.
