Compensation In Form Of Market Equivalent
May I compensate for misappropriation by returning the equivalent market value of the misappropriated item?
If the owner and the one who misappropriated both agree that the owner will take the equivalent market value of the misappropriated item rather than the item itself, the item becomes permissible for the one who misappropriated to keep and use. Market value is measured as the highest market price between the times of theft and loss, destruction or unavailability.
