Working in companies where main line is Haram : work in a gambling company

السؤال

[Question One] : Dear Sir, I hope you will be doing well by the grace of Almighty Allah. I would like to inform you that I am working here in Pakistan with Internet Company as computer Engineer but my salary is 15000 PKR which is not enough to fulfill the necessities of my home, parents and me due low salary and rising inflation. Every month, I have to borrow about 15000-20000 PKR to meet the daily needs. Hence, I decided to search job in abroad to earn reasonable amount to fulfill the needs of my family. I’m searching job since feb, 2011 and now I have job offer from Bahrain. The job role is Computer Engineer who will manage "Windows Server 2008" but the company business is sports betting and horse racing. Which is confusing me to take my decision. Here, please note that I do not know much about the company where they sell lottery tickets or promote it or do it by their selves. But it is 100% understood that I will not have any concern with betting or to book or sell lotto tickets. My sole work is about computer system and nothing else. By keeping in view my circumstances, please advise the whether I should join the company to get rid from the daily insult of credit and fulfill daily needs of life without lending more money. This wills also helping me to save my respect from borrowers. Looking forward to your prompt reply as I have to confirm with them till Monday 5 th Sep, 2011 Profound Regards, [Question Two] : Dear Sir, Thanks for your prompt reply. You know my circumstances. Let's suppose if the company is not fake, then can I join this company for the time being and later on, I will search some new job Please advise at your earliest as I’m very worried and confused. Kind Regards, Nabeel
