Question

If a clinically depressed person can?t find a halal job or business and is hurting himself and people around him emotionally is it ok to help him in haram (gas station, alcohol vending ) job?

Answer

If help signifies working at a gas station, then it will be permissible. If it means alcohol vending, then it will be Haraam. It is better to refrain from Haraam and earn a livelihood through Halaal means.
