Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The Shaykh : If the one from whom the theft was committed is a disbeliever, how is charity given on his behalf, when charity does not benefit him?
The student: The intention of giving charity is not for the disbeliever, but his intention is to disavow this money.
The Shaykh : What contradicts what follows this?
The Shaykh : It is known that this is a condition, whether the owner is a Muslim or a disbeliever. However, I did not mention this to you. This is placed in the Bayt al-Mal, because the Bayt al-Mal is the house for all money whose owner is unknown. All right.
