1. The correct way to dispose of unlawfully acquired money after repentance is to return it to its owner or their heirs. If this is not possible, it should be given as charity on behalf of its owner. As for unlawful money that does not belong to a specific owner (such as usurious interest or public funds), it should be given as charity to the poor and needy, or spent on public welfare for Muslims. It is not permissible for the recipient to spend this money on themselves or those they support.

2. There is no objection to a man's son marrying his wife's daughter, as long as there is no other impediment such as fosterage or the like.

3. The Quran prohibits taking the enemies of Islam, including Jews and Christians, as allies. The condemned alliance involves loving them, supporting them against believers, and befriending them. However, this does not include buying from or selling to them, unless it involves providing them with military assistance. A distinction must be made between the prohibition of alliance and the command to treat non-belligerents among them kindly and charitably.

4. There is no information available regarding "Majlis al-Fidyah" (Council of Ransom/Expiation) to rule on it.
