Q: I work for company called NEXT who’s CEO has political support for Israel.

Also the company provides a credit card for the customers which has interest in it as well. As I work as a sales girl I have to be on the counter/till while on the till sometimes I have to take the credit cards from the customers as their means of payment.

Can you please tell me if my earning is halaal?

A: If the items you are selling are permissible, then your income will be halaal.

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