In the past I took some money from a government agency without having the right for it. Now I regret it and want to pay it back. Should I repay it to the government or as Sadaqa to poor people?
It is wrong to take money from any government agency with out having the right for it. Muslim should always be sincere , truthful and honest.
'You need to return that money to its owners and if can not, then give it to the poor on behalf of the owners and not as a donation from you.
Wassalam.
