Q: My grandparents won a lottery of 1 lakh rs around 20 years ago. They then added some amount to this lottery amount (around 35K rs) and purchased a home. Thereafter, one of my family members lived in that house. Presently that house is on rent and we receive a rent of around 10K rs per month. I came to know that lottery is haram. So what should be done now?
Q: I've got a shop which sell lottery and pork but no alcohol. The property is mine. If I give it up for rent, is the rent money halal or if they said they want to put alcohol in it and I give them permission to put it in does that haram come back on me or better selling up?
Q: There are many needy people in my area. I am helping them in whatever way I can with my hard-earned money. However, this is not enough as the needy people are too many.
