Accepting Compensation From Unlawful Source
Is it permissible to accept compensation from a source whose earnings are unlawful?
It is impermissible to accept any form of compensation from a source when the recipient is certain that the very earnings used in the transaction were unlawfully gained; though if the recipient is doubtful about the unlawfulness of the earnings then taking compensation is permissible because one assumes that one takes from the lawful portion of the earnings.
