Is it permissible for a person to take money from his paternal uncle, which he earns from "zar" and "hadra" and by going to soothsayers, knowing that this person's father is deceased?

"Zar," consulting soothsayers, and performing "al-hadra" are forbidden acts. If a man's wealth is acquired solely from these sources, it is unlawful and impermissible to take from it. However, if it is mixed with lawful wealth, then there is no objection to taking from it.
