Answer:

Selling footwear to female customers

In the name of Allah, We praise Him, seek His help and ask for His forgiveness. Whoever Allah guides none can misguide, and whoever He allows to fall astray, none can guide them aright. We bear witness that there is no one worthy of worship but Allah Alone, and we bear witness that Muhammad (saws) is His slave-servant and the seal of His Messengers.

Allah Says in the Holy Quran Chapter 24 Surah Noor verse 30:

30      Say to the believing men that they should lower their gaze and guard their modesty: that will make for greater purity for them: and Allah is well acquainted with all that they do

 

If you happen to earn your livelihood selling footwear to ladies, these are the things you should be careful about:

1. Be polite and courteous, but do not become overly friendly with your non-mehram female customers.

2. Lower your gaze and guard your modesty in all forms.

3. Speak to your non-mehram female customers in a straight-forward and business-like manner.

4. Do not touch the non-mehram female customers. 

Whatever written of Truth and benefit is only due to Allah’s Assistance and Guidance, and whatever of error is of me alone.  Allah Alone Knows Best and He is the Only Source of Strength.

Your brother and well wisher in Islam,

Burhan
