    If you found a winning lottery ticket... (OP)


    If you picked up a winning Euro lottery ticket of £50million on the floor at your workplace/shop/street which contained the address of the person that purchased the ticket inside the envelope, would you keep it or would you give it back?

    Give an honest answer

    Would your religious conscious overpower greed or vice versa?

    So I take it those that would burn the ticket because Islam disagrees with gambling, would perhaps destroy one of my metal CDs if they found one on the floor? Would those that would burn it destroy anything they found that was in disagreement with Islam?

    Re: If you found a winning lottery ticket...

    This question reflects nothing more then a desperate lust for this world.

    If I found a lottery ticket I wouldn't hesitate for a moment to dispose of it even if I saw the person who lost it. If someone in my family had gambled and won double the amount you mentioned I wouldn't even eat the food that they buy or purchase something even the worth of a penny from that money. I would look for a place I could afford and move out because I refuse to accept anything, even to live under the roof, which is paid by gamble money.

    Gamble money sickens me.

    This is even before mention the fact that lottery or any other form of gambling is strictly forbidden in Islam.

    Lastly this thread seems to be an idle and useless thread so I will be closing it seeing as it has no benefit at all.

    If you found a winning lottery ticket...

    And verily for everything that a slave loses there is a substitute, but the one who loses Allah will never find anything to replace Him.”
    [Related by Ibn al-Qayyim in ad-Dâ' wad-Dawâ Fasl 49]
