Clearing one's conscience regarding taking a necklace from the neighbors' house
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
The questioner says: When I was young, I took a gold necklace from our neighbors' house, and I did not know that it was forbidden. When I grew up, I took a larger necklace and left it in the neighbors' house when I visited them. Does this clear my conscience in this case?
Answer:
They do not know; they think it is lost and they are looking for its owner. Teach them. Teach them and ask them for forgiveness. But if you left something and they do not know, they might say, "This is a forgotten shepherd's item" or "This is lost money," and they would start counting it. Yes.
The presenter:
May Allah reward you.
