Working for a courier company.
Question
I work in a software company as a software developer that develops software for courier company. The software is used for courier booking, tracking, routing, etc. No part of this software is meant to be used for haram purpose. Most of our customers are courier companies but few banks also use this software for managing their mailroom operations. They use it to book courier, track mails/percels, etc. Is my job permissible?
Answer
In the Name of Allah, the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful.
As-salāmu ‘alaykum wa-rahmatullāhi wa-barakātuh.
Your employment is permissible.
And Allah Ta’āla Knows Best
