The ruling on performing 'Umrah or Hajj with riba money

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
May Allah reward you. He says: I have money from a riba (usury or interest) source. Is it permissible for me to perform 'Umrah with it? I ask for your guidance.

Answer:
If this money is riba and you know that it is riba, it is not permissible for you to dispose of it. Rather, you must get rid of it by placing it in one of the public projects to get rid of it. It is not permissible for you to worship Allah with it, or to eat it, or to dispose of it, because it is haram (forbidden) money. Yes.
