It is not permissible to work in smuggling prohibited goods due to the risks and harm involved, exposing one's wealth to loss, humiliation, and disgrace, and the possibility of prosecution. It is possible to seek to import meat through legitimate means or establish farms for raising animals while obtaining permission for slaughter in the prescribed manner.
