Working as a flight attendant

Submitted by admin on Sat, 2014-01-25 15:42

Q: I'm born Muslim but never practised. I knew haram from halal but it meant nothing to me, which I really regret a lot now. My question is: I used to work as a flight attendant/cabin crew in a airline before, I used to have some flights where we served alcohol. "I quit a year ago" and started to searching for a halaal job and now I have a job, got married and some how make ends meet by the grace of Allah. Now when I need money for the rent and stuff out of the blue, after one whole year, I got a cheque from the same company for my final due payment. The cheque is pretty sweet but I don't know if its a blessing from Allah or a test. I'm going crazy behind this, and to top it up, I got to explain all this to my wife. please tell me what to do?

PS: The cheque is in two half's one part is where I served alcohol and the other where I did not. The benefits are combined though.
