Answer :
In the name of Allah, Most Gracious, Most Merciful Assalaamu `alaykum waRahmatullahi Wabarakatoh The purpose of the newspaper is to give news and not to advertise. The intention of the employee delivering the newspaper is to deliver the newspaper and not to deliver advertisements that are included in the newspaper. It is wrong for the newspaper company to include such advertisements in their paper but the employee delivering the newspaper is not responsible for that. Therefore, the income from delivery of newspapers that contain advertisement of alcohol will be lawful. However, it is discouraged since there is a doubt of assisting in vice. Rad al-Muhtar (6:391) H.M. Saeed Company Fatawa Mahmoodia (13:399) Maktaba Mahmoodia ( قوله وحمل خمر ذمي ) قال الزيلعي : وهذا عنده وقالا هو مكروه " لأنه عليه الصلاة والسلام { لعن في الخمر عشرة وعد منها حاملها } " وله أن الإجارة على الحمل وهو ليس بمعصية ، ولا سبب لها وإنما تحصل المعصية بفعل فاعل مختار ، وليس الشرب من ضرورات الحمل ، لأن حملها قد يكون للإراقة أو للتخليل ، فصار كما إذا استأجره لعصر العنب أو قطعه والحديث محمول على الحمل المقرون بقصد المعصية ا هـ زاد في النهاية وهذا قياس وقولهما استحسان ، ثم قال الزيلعي : وعلى هذا الخلاف لو آجره دابة لينقل عليها الخمر أو آجره نفسه ليرعى له الخنازير يطيب له الأجر عنده وعندهما يكره (رد المحتار 6:391) جب اصل کام شراب کے اعلان و اشتہار کا نہیں ، بلکہ جائز چیز کا ہے ۔ شراب کے متعلق جہاں تک ہو سکے بچنا چاہۓ (فتاوی محمودیہ 13:399) And Allah knows best Wassalam Ml.
