Can I use PF interest for family members’ expenses?

Answered as per Hanafi Fiqh by Muftisays.com
Can i use my interest money from my Provident Fund (PF) for my poor step mother or step brother or for my nephew’s school expense.

Answer
Bismillah

Al-jawab billahi at-taufeeq (the answer with Allah’s guidance)

Riba (usury) is a Haram form of income.

Therefore, any type of Haram funds should be disposed of.

The Haram income should be given into the ownership of deserving poor Muslim recipients without any intention of reward. Riba money will thus be disposed of without any intention of gaining reward, to those needy Muslims who are eligible to receive Zakat.

And Only Allah Ta’ala Knows Best.
