The answer

This money must be returned to its rightful owners, because it is someone else's money and it is not permissible to take it without a legitimate right. The fact that the entity from which it was taken is non-Muslim does not make it permissible not to return it. A believer is commanded to fulfill covenants, and Allah praised those who fulfill covenants and commanded the fulfillment of contracts.
