Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The fifth question of Fatwa No. ( 4172 )
Q5: What is the ruling on two brothers, one of whom is Muslim and the other is a mushrik (one who associates partners with Allah) and wealthy? Is it permissible for the Muslim brother to accept a gift from his disbelieving and mushrik brother, or not?
A5: It is permissible for a Muslim to accept a gift from his brother if he is a disbeliever or a mushrik (one who associates partners with Allah); because of the reconciliation that comes from it, perhaps Allah will guide him to Islam. And success is from Allah, and may Allah send prayers and blessings upon our Prophet Muhammad, his family, and his Companions.
