Drinking alcohol is one of the major sins that must be avoided and repented from. However, there is no connection between drinking it and being entitled to a salary earned from a permissible job. The one who drinks alcohol must hasten to repent, for a severe warning has been issued concerning it, including that the prayer of one who drinks alcohol will not be accepted for forty mornings.
