Ruling on giving charity from another person's money without his permission
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Q217: The questioner says: I work in one of the shops, and sometimes I give some of the shop owner's money as charity while he is unaware of it. I hope to receive the reward for this charity. Is that permissible?
A217: It is not permissible except with his permission. Do not give charity from another person's money except with his permission. The exception is a wife in her husband's house, who may give charity to a needy person or a beggar, giving the beggar what is customary. As for anyone else, you are a trustee and an agent, so you must not act except with the permission of the one who appointed you, and you must not give charity from his money except with his permission.
