Making ads for betting or alcohol

[Ahmad0304]

Aoa,
I am living in Europe and working in anIT company that makes digital advertisements for differentnewspapers. Newspaper companies also have their own customers whowant to publish their advertisements on newspaper. Theseadvertisements are only for mobile devices. Newspaper company givesus the advertisement to make it to display on the newspaper onmobile. So our customer is newspaper company and we do on theirbehalf whatever they want us to make. Advertisement can be of a foodproduct, shoe store, electronics etc. Sometimes we get request tomake advertisement of alcohol or betting company. Also in some adsthere are women in inappropriate clothes, since it's a part of theseEuropean countries. What does Islam says about this kind of job? Isit haram? Since our customer is newspaper so we never know what typeof ads they would give us to make.
Thanks,
Ahmad

:wasalamex brother,

Welcome to the forum.

It would be best to ask your question on a fatwa site because we do not have qualified people to give fatwas here. You might find your question or a similar one already asked on a fatwa site, so it's worth searching them :ia:. May Allaah :swt: guide you to the best decision, Aameen.

along the lines of what Br. Muhammad already said, but can you refuse certain types of jobs? for instance accept making an ad for cheese but not alcohol that sort of thing?
