The answer

It is not permissible to work in advertising that includes prohibited content, such as images of naked women or promotion of alcoholic beverages, because it constitutes cooperation in sin. If it is possible to work only on receiving permissible advertisements, then there is no harm, provided one denounces the forbidden, although finding work away from dubious matters is better. A percentage of the earnings corresponding to the advertisements for prohibited items must be given out and spent on charitable causes with the intention of purifying oneself from the unlawful gain, not with the intention of spending in the way of Allah.
