Question

If I bought a phone with haraam money, can I use it for a halaal online business?

Answer

If you had used the exactly same haraam money that you received then you should give the phone away. You cannot keep it.

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.
