Becoming an events organizer

Q: I am planning to start my career in the field of event organizing. I may get events in which there may be unlawful gatherings, intermingling of sexes, and other haram stuffs that may be involved. Can I take such contracts ? What if I do not mix into the gathering or support the setup of any haram products such as alcohol. My part would be merely to supervise and look after the decoration of the venue and related jobs?

A: Contracts that will involve haraam must be refrained from.

And Allah Ta'ala (الله تعالى) knows best.
