How to Dispose of Money That Contains Riba
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
A person who holds shares in a company, and it is then revealed that it contains a percentage of riba (usury or interest), and he wants to get rid of this percentage, in which forms should he dispose of it?
Any money that enters a person’s possession through a forbidden path, from which he then repents, he should dispose of it by spending it on what brings him closer to Allah, such as building mosques, giving charity to the poor, and the like. The important thing is that he removes it from his ownership to rid himself of it, in any form of good, whether in building mosques or in giving charity to the poor.
