Does stolen money used to treat a sister with cancer harm her?
Source: FtawySummarized from the full answer at Ftawy · imported Sep 2, 2026
Theft for the sake of medicine for one's sister is forbidden and impermissible in any way, because the immediate and long-term harm of theft is greater than the harm of illness. The questioner must fear Allah Almighty concerning himself and not expose himself to what is impermissible, and he should be patient and content with Allah Almighty's decree.
