Retrieving a Haraam Video Game: What Should I Do?

Answered as per Hanafi Fiqh by Muftionline.co.za

Q: A non-Muslim had borrowed a haraam video game from me three years ago. He has now moved to another city. Do I need to make an effort to retrieve the video game from him in order to destroy it? Or is there another way around this?

Bismillaah

A: If you can get it back then get it back, destroy it and make taubah.

And Allah Ta’ala (الله تعالى) knows best.
