The answer

The money earned from this source should be spent on the poor and needy Muslims, and on general charitable causes such as mosques and educational institutions, on the condition that it is disbursed as a means of getting rid of it, not as an act of charity. If the suitor is poor and in need of money for his expenses or marriage, it is permissible for him to take from this money to meet his needs, like any other poor person.
