Charging for the Shipping of Cigarettes

Question
I work as a manager in a shipping and freight transportation company. Is it permissible for me to ship tobacco (cigarettes)? My job is only to transport tobacco from the factory to the merchant. Is my work in this regard haram (forbidden) or halal (permissible)?
Answer
I say, and with God's success: Your work is permissible; because it is not a sale but a transfer, and God knows best.
