The ruling on returning money taken without right

Question:
May Allah reward you with good. After this, a message reached the program from one of the listening brothers. He says: "Alu Sin Sa. I am an Egyptian resident in Jeddah. Three months ago, I repented to Allah and turned away from sins, but I have a problem. I used to work for a company in Egypt, and I took some money without right. That is, I used to sell some items for my own account, and I know the amount. Is it obligatory for me to return that money? If I promised to return it, I am ashamed of my action. Should I give it in charity instead? May Allah reward you with good."

Answer:
Before it becomes so. It is not in the Fire, nor in the Fire. On the Day of Resurrection, if he has good deeds, his good deeds will be taken from him to give to the oppressed. And if he does not have good deeds, then his good deeds will be... that what is upon him of what he took from the sins of others will be placed upon him, and he will be thrown into the Fire. So the matter is serious, and his patience with the hardship of delivering rights to their owners in this world is easier for him than its hardship in the Hereafter.
