The answer

If the profits resulted from forbidden transactions and usurious interest, one must repent and dispose of them by spending them on charitable causes. There is no harm in spending them on relatives who are not legally dependent if they are in need. However, if the profits did not result from forbidden transactions, then they are lawful.
