Is working in the field of tourism, which includes organizing trips, booking hotels and transportation for tourist groups, and sometimes accompanying them, unlawful according to Sharia, even while being careful to avoid places where alcohol is served?

Working in the field of tourism is often not free of objectionable things. We advise leaving it and seeking another job, for whoever gives up something for the sake of Allah, Allah will compensate him with something better. "And whoever fears Allah - He will make for him a way out And will provide for him from where he does not expect. And whoever relies upon Allah - then He is sufficient for him."
