Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
He says: Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success, if a man builds restrooms for people to relieve themselves in using haram (forbidden) money, does he receive reward for this action?
Answer:
No, my brother, he does not receive reward. This is haram (forbidden) money that he is getting rid of. We said he is getting rid of it; this is getting rid of it, and it is like charity, but it is not charity. It is getting rid of it, like lost money that belongs to no one.
