What is the Islamic ruling on a Muslim brother paying for a stall and doing business in the church's open-area garden?

Question

What is the Islamic ruling on a Muslim brother paying for a stall and doing business in the church's open-area garden? The proceeds of the payments go to the Church.

Answer

It is not permissible to hire a stall for trading in the premises of the church. To do so is to aid in sin and transgression which the Qur'aan forbids. Aiding a church is to aid in shirk and kufr which are the worst sins. The earnings are not permissible.
