Is it permissible to become an accountant?

Question

Is it permissible to become an accountant? They have to write up interest transactions.

Answer

It is permissible to become an accountant. But it is not permissible for him to be a party to an interest deal. A Muslim accountant may not write the books of non-Muslims in view of all their dealings relating to interest transactions. It will be just like writing the books for a brothel.
