Is it permissible to prepare and sell food and cakes for a wedding reception where men and women will be mixed?

Question

Is it permissible to prepare and sell food and cakes for a wedding reception where men and women will be mixed? Cooking and baking for functions are my source of income.

Answer

It is haraam to assist in any haraam activity. If the function is haraam, then assisting in any way whatsoever is likewise haraam. It is not permissible to cook food for a haraam function. One does not require knowledge to understand this clear fact. The conscience of Imaan is adequate for a fatwa.
