Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
A poor man is accused of using narcotics. Is it permissible for me to give him charity, knowing that he prays?

Answer:
Answer: Give him charity, but advise him. Tell him, "I do not permit you to spend this money on buying narcotics. You should only spend it on your needs, your poverty, and your dependents."
