The Ruling on Money Announced for Donation but Not Yet Received
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
May Allah reward you. Honorable Shaykh, this questioner says: When the donation for the Afghans was announced on the media, I called them and gave them the account number, the bank name, the amount, the mobile number, and my full name. I specified the amount, and up to now they have not contacted me. My question is: What should I do with this amount now? Is the amount mine, or do I have no right to it?
Answer:
Call them again. Perhaps they forgot, or you did not speak to them about it, or it was not slaughtered. Call them a second time and confirm it. The amount does not leave your ownership until you hand it over to them. As for what has come into your hand, there is no harm in handing it over to them; it is not part of your ownership. Yes.
