In Islam, directly participating in the sale of alcohol or pork is considered haram (forbidden) due to their harmful effects and prohibition in Islamic law. However, working in a store that sells these items may be permissible if the job primarily involves other goods and services, and there is no direct involvement in the sale or promotion of alcohol or pork. It's essential to prioritize seeking halal (permissible) employment and avoiding activities that contradict Islamic principles.
