Q: Mrs J used to sell goods on behalf of Mr A, on a commission basis.  After months of this trading, Mr A's sons began selling other goods to Mrs J's customers, Mr A then made a statement that his 2 sons will give Mrs J R1k each a month because of her these goods where being sold.  For over a year this was being done, where Mrs J received R2k a month, and commission on the goods that she was to sell.  In April of this year (2011), Mrs J asked for her commission of R8k which was due to her, Mr A then stated that over these past months the R2k a month was for her commission on the arranged goods as he did not make any arrangements for the R1k a month from each son. Mr A's son even said he was not aware that this had changed until his dad told him not to give the commission.  What is the Shariah ruling according to this? Is Mr A liable to still pay Mrs J her commission that is due to her, and then request the change in her part of this agreement?

Q: One person is asking for Help for his sons health. We gave him (not only me but so many others also gave) some money. Later we came to know that, that person is a fake and he did not have any kind of problems and he doesn't have a child as well. Due to his bad lucky one day, I saw him and spoke to him. He was earning money like this for many years and when I was asked him didn't you fear Allah he said yes I do. When I told him that earning money like this is haraam, he gave me a wired answer. After hearing the answer I was totally confused and I am totally confused. He said if he earned 1 lakh money that way, he will donate some amount as a Zakaat to purify the money. In this way he will be earning halaal income. 

Is this true? He said if your earn money unlawfully like interest and many other sources, if you give zakaat or donate some money, it will purify the money. Please guide me?
