How does one get rid of riba money?

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
A questioner from Europe says: My sister received money that she had earned from riba (usury or interest), and she wanted to get rid of it. He says: My sister received money that she had earned from riba, and she wanted to get rid of it, so she gave it to me and ordered me to hand this money over to a Christian family, not with the intention of charity, but with the intention of getting rid of this evil money. Is what I am doing correct?

Answer:
This is like lost money that has no owner, so you give it to the needy. There is no harm in that. Yes.
