Neato! Look at the excuses! It's OK because they use the money to feed their family? I'm sure lots of drug dealers have that same mentality. They can rationalize everything they do because they are sociopaths with no clear conscience.

yes. its as the illegal mexicans who come here do, their own countries are crap n they cant make money there so they come here to take our money n send it to their crap countries instead of working in their own country to help contribute to their own economies. they dont think that, granted it will take time n they wont be rich, they ultimately will be making their country stronger by staying there. and im tired of going to get a bottle and paying more for it from their businesses too lol

How do you know every Middle Eastern who sells hot dogs and liquor is a Muslim.
Think before you speak, dear.
**On another note, I see you have a serious problems with Muslims, so much so, that you generalize the entire group. That is so sad. You asked "Does it make sense to change scripture just to make it easier for someone to believe it?" in another question of yours, and I ask you, do you not realize some Christians have done the same thing? And continue to do the same thing. How dare you criticize a whole people, simply because they believe in something different than you.
I pray you find some wisdom, and soon. Ignorance is not bliss, it's just sad.

I am muslim, and would be glad to answer your question, that is, if you are really asking and not just venting as your last sentence seems to suggest.
Muslims are NOT allowed to sell any products that they themselves are prohibited form using. It's as simple as that. I will not judge those who do, maybe they have financial issues or feel no other way is open to them, but technically it is absolutely not allowed. So you should know that we are not all hypocrites and do follow the injunction which refrains us from buying, selling, or even being the middle man in such a trade.

there are good muslims and bad muslims, just like with any religion. most, I can assure you, do not. I have to work at a grocery store, so being involved in that transaction I hope for forgiveness..but at the end of the day, this society is shitty and corrupt, what can you do?
don't be ignorant. I bet most of the people you're inferring are muslim are probably hindu or sikh LOL.

First off yes the prophet Mohammad is a prophet and yes their is one god and thats Allah he is all merciful. to your question if thats what they got to do to support their family let them they are the ones who answer to all that on the day of judgement when Allah calls them from they grave.
By the way opinions are like asswholes everybody got one right. Have a nice time on the way down.

The same reason that they are not supposed to trade in drugs or alcohol, yet 90% of the world's heroin is generated from poppies grown in Afghanistan. These people alter anything to suit themselves. Suicide is not allowed, yet all the suicide bombers do it in the name of their made up god. And what about drugged up mohammed and his underage sexploits? 6 year old girls for his wives........that tells a lot don't it - More faces than a dodecahedron.

Its becuse they make money off of those products. Yes it does not seem right to sell something you are not for but people do all kinds of things for money.

they are corrupted bunch of people. they say they are proud to be muslims but actually they are disgrace to Islam.
yeah, they are hypocrite!
let me ask you.....Christianity is against sex out of wedlock but why some Christians still do adulteries!?
There is only one God and a lot of Prophets. Muhammad, Isa (Jesus), Daud (David) are God's prophets.

Yes, it is wrong for a Muslim to sell alcohol and pork, even to non-Muslims
But it is also wrong for a man to let his family go hungry. If he must choose which is worse, he will probably choose the sin in which less harm is done to other people, because if he didn't sell those items, someone else would, but if he does not feed and shelter his family, nobody else will.
