What is the method for returning stolen money to its owner in Aleppo, if it is impossible to reach him or to appoint someone due to fear of scandal, and is it permissible to donate it to the poor in the camps?

Repentance from a sin related to the rights of another human being requires restoring the right to them. If the exact amount cannot be ascertained, then strive to return what you believe, with high probability, will clear your conscience, while exercising caution. It is not permissible to give stolen money as charity on behalf of its owner if it is possible to return it to them, even through an intermediary. It is also not necessary to inform them or the intermediary about the theft.
