Is working in a tourist hotel that does not directly serve alcoholic beverages, but leases a space to a company that sells them, and where it is probable that salaries are mixed with ill-gotten gains, considered forbidden, doubtful, or permissible, knowing that the nature of the work does not involve dealing with alcoholic beverages?
It is not permissible to work in a hotel where immoral acts are committed, or where alcoholic beverages are served, or where lewd parties are held, if the work is connected to any of these. However, if the work is in permissible areas and has no connection to forbidden matters, then there is no harm in it, but it is better to avoid such places. As for the salary, if the worker directly engages in forbidden work or assists in it, then it is unlawful for him to possess the salary, and he must dispose of it by spending it on charitable causes. But if he did not directly engage in forbidden work and the benefit (he provides) is permissible, then there is no harm for him in benefiting from the salary.
