Dependents living on parents’ interest earning and inheritance from them : gift and inheritance from persons dealing in Riba

السؤال

[Question one] : Br. Monzer, As Salaamu 'Alaikum, I had a question if you don't mind : My parents do not pay Zakah on their property even though they are Muslims (I've told them many times that they should, but they don't) plus they've put their money on interest bearing accounts and earn interest that they keep. Is it Halal money for me, if my father gives me, let's say $ 100K as a gift, knowing that Zakah wasn't paid on any of his wealth and it is mixed with interest ? Can I accept it as it is ? How about the money I was to inherit from him, should he pass away ? [Question two] : You are always so generous with your time. Would the case be any different if I were to ask for money from my parents because I need it ? My parents are generous and have given large sums of money to my other siblings (to help out with buying a house, etc...) but I have been hesitant and did not ask. If I asked, they'd give to me, too. Knowing that the money is the way I described, is it better if I did not ask for it though we do need it to help us buy a home (I.e. does passively receiving it make it different from actively asking for it) ? Jazaka Allah.
