Paying one's helper with interest money
Question
What do we do with interest money? Can we pay our helper at home in the form of wages?
Answer
No. Give it to some poor person without the niyyat of thawaab, not as a remuneration for any service.
And Allah Ta'ala (الله تعالى) knows best.

Fatawa SA is an independent, read-only index of fatawa already published by Mufti Online — Madrasah Ta'leemuddeen. It is not a fatwa service. For your own situation, ask the issuing Darul Ifta directly.
