Mixed permissible and impermissible properties are the properties part of which are acquired through permissible ways and the rest are acquired through impermissible ways.[1] The difference between such properties and questionable properties is that regarding questionable properties, there is doubt about the mixing of permissible and impermissible properties.[2]

In Islamic jurisprudence, it is not permissible to use properties while it is mixed with permissible and impermissible properties.[3] According to Shiite jurists:

  • If the amount and the owner of the impermissible property are known, it is obligatory to return the impermissible property to its owner.[4]
  • If the amount of impermissible property is known but the owner is unknown, according to the fatwa of a group of jurists, that amount should be given as charity on behalf of the owner. Based on obligatory precaution, permission should be obtained from the shari'a ruler.[5]
  • If the owner of the impermissible property is known but the amount is unknown, according to the explicit opinion of a group of jurists, he must be satisfied, and if he is not satisfied, then the amount that is definitely his should be given to him.[6]
  • If neither the amount nor the owner of the impermissible property is known, Shi'a jurists have considered the mixed property among the cases where giving its khums is obligatory, in such a way that one-fifth of the total property must be paid as khums.[7] This fatwa is the opinion of famous Shi'a jurists.[8]It has been said that paying khums of mixed property is not obligatory according to Sunnis.[9]
