Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
May Allah reward you, Honorable Shaykh. This questioner says: I know a friend from the Prophet’s (peace and blessings be upon him) family, whose lineage to the Prophet’s (peace and blessings be upon him) house has been established. He is one of those who is entitled to the penalty funds, but he has not found money to meet his need. One of the sheikhs offered him a sum of money that came to him in the form of penalty funds. The question is: Is it permissible for him to take from it, given that he has a material need for it?
Answer:
You must refer this question to the House of Islam so that they can look into it. They have many questions of this kind. So, you must refer it to them and follow up until you receive the answer. Yes.
