Question:
He says: Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success, more than fifty thousand riyals were deposited into my father's bank account by one of the government departments by mistake. I advised him to return it, but he did not respond. Should I report this to that government department, even though my father may become angry with me for doing so?
Answer:
So you must listen to the reminders and repeat them to him. If he does not accept, then you have cleared your conscience. Yes.
