Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success, he says: Is it permissible for me to accept a sum of money, because I won a prize at one of the commercial centers by purchasing tickets? He says: And I am in need of this money.
The Shaykh:
No, do not take it, and Allah will provide you with something else. This money is from consuming wealth unjustly, so it is not permissible. Do not take it; leave it.
The presenter:
Then
The questioner:
He says, may Allah preserve you: And if this money is not permissible for me, may I borrow a small amount from it and then return it later?
The Shaykh:
Never approach it, and never approach it. If Allah makes it easy for you to obtain something else. Yes.
