What is the method for getting rid of usurious money?

The questioner : Praise be to Allah. Some scholars issue rulings that a person who repents from consuming usury, and who has a lot of money or real estate, should eat from it, give charity, and repent at the moment he repents. They cite a verse from the Book of Allah: to the end of the verse. They also say that if we tell him he must get rid of the house or villa he lives in and get rid of all his money, it becomes difficult for him to repent. This is what they say. We want to know the position of the Shari'ah on this matter. May Allah reward you with good.

The Shaykh : What they said is the Shari'ah, because no one has an opinion after the saying of Allah (Mighty and Majestic) in the verse you referred to, which is explicit in its indication and does not accept figurative interpretation or exegesis other than what every Arab understands: . So if the capital of this person who repented from usury, or from unlawful money, is, for example, one hundred thousand, and he has a million or millions, he must give it all away within the limits of his ability. If the one hundred thousand is sufficient for him and prevents him from seeking the livelihood he was previously engaged in, then that is his obligation: to give away all the forbidden money. But if that money, which is his capital, is not sufficient for him, it is better for him to ask people and beg from them than to eat unlawful money. This is the truth. Therefore, a person who truly repents should not hesitate to implement this within the limits of ability, which is the condition for implementing all rulings, due to the saying of the Exalted: .
This is the answer to the question.

He does not have that right. Rather, that money must be spent on public facilities where no specific person benefits from it, even if that person is poor.
