Q: A Muslim relative is known to have been involved in taking drugs and alcohol. I do not know the source of his income i.e. whether he even deals in drugs or not. He has been in and out of rehab many times. I do not know his current condition. He sends a gift for me.
(1) Is this gift permissible for me?
(2) If it is not permissible, must it be given in charity without the intention of reward?
A: If you have doubts regarding the gift then it is better to give it in charity.
And Allah Ta'ala (الله تعالى) knows best.
