The answer

The ruling on assisting a maid in transferring money to a church depends on the purpose of the transfer. If it is for the construction of the church or its religious activities, then it is not permissible to assist her, due to the Almighty's saying: "And do not cooperate in sin and aggression." However, if the purpose is to distribute the money to poor and needy Christians or to those who use it as a shelter, then there is no harm in that, and it is permissible to facilitate the transfer of money for this purpose.
