Mufti Sahib,

Assalam-o-Alaikum
People work here in stores, most of the products at grocery stores are halal, but they do sell lottery tickets. Normally 70% business of that store run because of this lottery and has a lot of sales on daily basis. Running a store like this or working there as an employee is OK or not?

Faisal Khan

The merchandise running with major portion of HARAM inter investment should neither be acquired or joined as an employee.
