Question:
He says: Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success. If the money I obtained was earned through a forbidden means, is it permissible for me to give it in charity to those in need?
Answer:
That is not charity; it is not a sadaqah. Rather, it is a way to get rid of it, like lost money that has no owner. It is given to those in need or placed in charitable projects. It is not in the category of charity, but in the category of getting rid of it. Yes.
