The answer

It is impermissible to work in a market where there is assistance in selling alcohol, such as accounting, selling, or negotiating. However, the mere presence of an alcohol section, without the employee having any connection to it, does not affect the permissibility of their work. This ruling applies to the sale of cigarettes as well, while reminding the questioner of the necessity to observe the Islamic legal guidelines for women's work.
