Working in a Tourist Hotel
My husband works in a five-star hotel at the Dead Sea, which means there is a nightclub and alcohol. He works at the reception, and we have a daughter and a son together. I have known about his job since our engagement, and I ask him to quit his job. If he refuses, should I stay with him or ask for a divorce? Is his job halal or haram?
Answer
I say, and with God's help: The work itself is permissible as long as it does not involve prohibitions, and it is better to avoid such work due to the temptation it may bring, and to seek other opportunities. You should continue to advise him to look for opportunities elsewhere, and God knows best.
