The answer

The prohibition of money is not related to the money itself, but to the liability of the one who takes it. Therefore, it is permissible to work in a restaurant financed by an interest-based loan if the work itself is lawful. As for managing a restaurant for a percentage of the profit, there is a difference of opinion among scholars. The majority forbid it due to the uncertainty in the wage, while one narration from Ahmad permits it.
