Is it possible to donate a monthly percentage of the profits from leveraged trading to offset the borrowed amount and attempt to avoid the sin of leveraged trading, given the inability to abandon this trade?

Do not justify your intention to donate some of the profits due to the use of the prohibited financial leverage, as it is impermissible and does not make it lawful. A small amount that is halal is better than a large amount that is haram, which lacks blessing. Allah Almighty has taken responsibility for providing sustenance and guaranteed it to every person. "And whoever fears Allah - He will make for him a way out and will provide for him from where he does not expect." And do not let the delay in sustenance lead you to acquire it through disobeying Allah, for what is with Allah can only be attained through His obedience. And you will not abandon anything for the sake of Allah, the Mighty and Majestic, except that Allah will replace it with something better for you.
