The answer

Benefiting from money is a branch of the ruling on acquiring it. If it was lawful (), then benefiting from it is lawful. If it was unlawful (), then it is forbidden. If it was mixed, it is disliked (makrooh). The ruling on acquiring it is related to its nature and effect. Thus, one who works in security institutions and helps an oppressed person or deters an oppressor is not equal to one who works in them and assists in injustice or participates in corruption.
