What is the ruling on income earned from working in the maintenance of a system that allows the display of television channels broadcasting lewd programs that contradict Islamic law?

If the channels contradict Islamic law, then it is not permissible to work in the maintenance of their systems, because that involves aiding in sin and aggression, in accordance with the words of Allah the Almighty: "And do not cooperate in sin and aggression." The wage earned from this work is not lawful, because the Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings be upon him, said: "Indeed, when Allah, the Mighty and Majestic, forbids the consumption of something, He also forbids its price."
