The question

What is the ruling on stolen money whose owners are unknown, and how can one dispose of it? Is one sinful if they abandon a friend who does not respond to advice and threatens to commit suicide? Is working in a restaurant that serves pork and alcohol forbidden? Is it obligatory to emigrate to an Islamic country despite difficult circumstances?

The answer

You must repent to Allah for the grave sins and serious crimes you have committed, and it is obligatory to abandon the bad companion with whom you committed the crime of sodomy. You must stop the forbidden work of selling pork and seek lawful employment, while disposing of the forbidden money in charitable causes; it can be given as charity to poor relatives. You must also return the equivalent of stolen items to their owners, and if that is not possible, then give it as charity on their behalf, for repentance is not complete without that.
