If the illicit money is known or mixed with lawful money, it must be disposed of by spending it on good causes, with the intention of disposal, not charity; because the Prophet, peace and blessings be upon him, said: "Indeed, Allah is pure and accepts only what is pure." Usurious interest must be removed from money held in a usurious bank, and one must refrain from depositing money in it in the future.
