Question:

Assalamu Alaikum,there was a class party and I was invited,everyone was supposed to pay money and so I payed money to go there but after I had paid the money I decided not to go because there was Alcohol and Music but the money I paid they probably bought alcohol with it , so am I sinful for that as when I paid money i didn't intend it for alcohol and didn't realise that alcohol will be bought with itJazzakAllah Khair

Answer:

All perfect praise be to Allah, The Lord of the Worlds. I testify that there is none worthy of worship except Allah, and that Muhammad  sallallaahu  `alayhi  wa  sallam ( may  Allaah exalt his mention ) is His slave and Messenger.

As long as you paid it and you did not know that they would spend it on Haram (forbidden) things, there is no sin on you - Allah willing - if you did not intend to help them in Haram.

And you did well by refraining from going and participating in this evil party.

Allah knows best.
