What is the ruling on taking an amount of 500 EGP from young men and women who unintentionally caused a fire in an apartment, as compensation instead of reporting them to the police?

It is permissible for someone who has suffered harm due to another's trespass on their property to demand compensation, and the money you receive for this is lawful for you. If the entry of these girls and boys was with your knowledge, you have committed a sin by aiding them in sin, and you must repent. If it was without your knowledge, then the sin is lifted from you, but it is necessary to take precautions by securely locking the doors. What you took from them in exchange for the damage is permissible. However, what you took in exchange for not reporting the forbidden acts is not permissible, and you must return it and conceal their matter if they show remorse and repentance.
