Is it permissible to help the poor with money from haram sources?

Answered as per Hanafi Fiqh by Darulifta-Deoband.com
Can I help poor people by interest money or by any haram source money is coming and I spend all money to needy and poor ones. Is it correct or not?

بسم الله الرحمن الرحيم

(Fatwa: 938/589/L=1434)

The use of interest money is that it is given in charity without the intention of reward to the poor and needy ones; hence if you spend the amount of interest to the poor and needy ones then it is correct as per the Shariah.
Note: Your sentence “or money coming by any haram source” is ambiguous. Please explain it and submit your query again, then in-shaAllah, you shall be replied.

Allah knows Best!
