The answer

Cinemas are not free of religious prohibitions due to the films they show and the forbidden acts and mixing that occur in their halls. Therefore, it is absolutely impermissible to work in them, as this involves directly engaging in forbidden acts and cooperating in them. Allah Almighty says: (And cooperate in righteousness and piety, but do not cooperate in sin and aggression). Your brother must leave his work in the cinema and seek permissible employment. Allah will provide for him from sources he could never imagine, for Allah Almighty says: (And whoever fears Allah – He will make for him a way out and will provide for him from where he does not expect).
