Giving earned interest to charities and others : disposing of interest earning on brother

Fatawa Question

Asalamu Alaikum Wa Rahmatullah, My name is Latifa. I was reading your Fatwa on Islamonline where a man asked whether he was permitted to spend interest money that they had collected to pay off his brother's debt in order to make his own money Halal. You mentioned that it was since he was not obligated to spend it on his brother. Jazakom Allah Khair for your work on behalf of Islam and Muslims. I wanted to ask you : Would you please provide evidence (detailed evidence) to back up this answer. I know you gave the correct answer but I want to learn from it and it would help me if you could provide the evidence for this and any other Fatwas. Jazakom Allah Khair Your sister
