If my clothes became Najis because they came into contact and were contaminated with pork, how many times do I need to wash them so they become pure and I can wear them while performing prayers?
Sayyed Mohammad Al-Musawi

Such clothes need to be washed with water like washing any other Najis clothes, then it will become Taahir. 

Plates and vessels contaminated by dog need to be washed first with soil, then with pure water, but this rule is not for clothes.

Plates or vessels contaminated with pig or dead rat need to washed with water seven times. That is not for clothes.

I am building a website where users can review products and these may sometimes include products such as pork and alcohol. Will it be sinful for me if someone reviews such products or businesses on our website?
Sayyed Mohammad Al-Musawi

It is not permissible for us as Muslims to promote any unlawful (Haraam) item e.g. alcohol, pork, etc.

You should keep your website clean from unlawful items.

Is it allowed to work as a delivery driver for Amazon when a small proportion of the packed parcels may contain within them items such as pork and alcohol?
Sayyed Mohammad Al-Musawi

Muslim is not allowed to deliver unlawful (Haraam) items at all. If you are sure the job will definitely make you carry or deliver such Haraam items even in any small percentage, you will not be allowed then to do such job.

If a non-Muslim restaurant owner tells you that his meat is Halal, can you eat the meat? And if the non-Muslim is also selling pork and assures you the Halal meat won't touch the pork, could you still eat from there?
Sayyed Mohammad Al-Musawi

Non Muslim seller who claims that the meat he is selling or wants to sell is Halal can not be taken as an authentic evidence that the meat is really Halal. If Muslim tells you that his meat is Halal and you have no reason to doubt his statement, then you can take the neat as Halal.

Restaurants selling alcohol or pork can never be trusted as utensils and plates used in cooking or serving alcohol or pork  become Najis and and every other food put in Najis utensils and plates becomes Najis as well.

Wassalam.
