Supporting a business that promotes Christianity

Question:-

A shopkeeper openly declares that the profits generated in his business is used to propagate Christianity. Are we, as Muslims, permitted to support and purchase from such a business?

Answer:-

Since they openly declare that their income will be used for propagating Christianity, we should avoid supporting them. By supporting them, we will be indirectly assisting in the disobedience of Allah Taála, whereas the Quraan Sharif states, “And do not assist each other in sin and transgression.” [Re:- Surah Maa’idah].  The goods should preferably be purchased from a Muslim shopkeeper.    

ALLAH TAÁLA KNOWS BEST!
