Financially assisting a person who does not perform salaah and committed zina
Question
Is financially helping a poor person who is a relative of mine and has abandoned salaah and has committed zina permissible?
Answer
If he is remorseful over his wrongs and he wants to correct himself then do help him.
And Allah Ta'ala (الله تعالى) knows best.
