Getting Rid of a Share in Forbidden Earnings
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question: A man was in partnership with another in a shop for photographic equipment, and he has repented. How can he end his partnership in it without suffering a loss? And what is the ruling on the earnings he receives from this shop?
Answer: He ends the partnership by appraisal, and he and his partner agree on a value that both of them are satisfied with. Whatever he receives from that is permissible for him, except if any of it is the value of photographing living beings or something of the forbidden things. In that case, it is not permissible for him to consume it. Rather, he must repent to Allah with a sincere repentance, resolve not to return to it, and give it in charity or spend it on a charitable project.
