The answer

It is advisable to seek another lawful job, because an internet cafe is often not free of -prohibited elements, and its owner incurs sin for causing its patrons to fall into sin. Furthermore, illicit money enters his wealth in exchange for forbidden use. If he is determined to open it, he must adhere to the Sharia guidelines mentioned in no. 32772.
