Q: If a person used to use pirated software of Microsoft packages such as Word and PowerPoint and he used to use Adobe pirated software which he downloaded from pirate bay or so, does he have to pay any company now or owe anything?
A: Copyright is not recognized in Shariah. Hence, if he bought the fake version, it is permissible and he does not have to pay the company anything.
And Allah Ta'ala (الله تعالى) knows best.
