Is it permissible to transport haram meat and pay goodwill to a Mufti for a business?

Answered as per Hanafi Fiqh by Darulifta-Deoband.com
I am a transporter. A company has aproached me to pull their trailer with my truck. The trailer will be filled with Haraam meat products. Is this allowed? I have bought my business from a reputible Mufti. He has charged me goodwill for the business. Is this allowed?

Answer

(Fatwa: 521/510=N)

It is allowed but not better:

و جاز تعمیر کنیسۃ و حمل خمر ذمی بنفسی او دابتہ بأجر و حذا عندہ و قالا: ھو مکروہ لأنہ علیہ الصلاۃ والسلام لعن فی الخمر عشرۃ و عد منھا حاملھا۔ ولہ ان الاجارۃ علی الحمل و ھو لیس بمعصیۃ و لا سبب لھا وانھا تحصل المعصیۃ بفعل فاعل مختار ۔۔۔ والحدیث محمول علی الحمل المقرون بقصد المعصیۃ اھ۔ زاد فی النھایۃ و ھذا قیاس وقولھما استحسان (در مع رد المحتار: 9/562)
