Question:
786
Assalamo alaikum wrwb,
Thank you for granting us the oppurtunity to ask a question.
A cousin of mine found money at the cash machine. She called me what she has to do with the money. I humbly ask your advice what is halal with the money?
Thank you in advance. May Allah bless you and your beloved ones.
With high respect and salaams
Answer:
wa `alaykum salam,
If there is no chance that we can find the owner of money found in such a way, then one may give it as a charity to the poor on behalf of the owner.
Allah knows best.
