Would it be permissible to benefit from a tax relief whislt donating Haram earnings to a charity ?
Fatawa Question
I have about £ 1000 worth of shares in a bank. I now understand its impermissible to hold such shares, so I was going to sell them and give the money to charity with no expectation of reward. However I’ve learnt from HMRC that if I gift qualifying shares to a charity there is income tax relief and potentially capital gains tax relief available. Can I dispose of these bank shares in such a way, thus obtaining the income tax relief as a benefit ?
