Ruling on the shares of a specific company requires examining its dealings and financial statements. If the company's activity is forbidden, then only the impermissible portion of the profits must be disposed of, whether it is operating profit or profit resulting from buying and selling. It is permissible to give the impermissible portion to one's sister or her husband if they are poor, but it is not permissible if they are wealthy.
