Question
A person who won a lottery held on the night of Tisha B'Av, should he be concerned and dispose of all the money, perhaps it is wealth kept to the owner's detriment?
Answer
Shalom Rav,
We did not find an issue with money earned on Tisha B'Av, except for money that comes from work done in violation of a prohibition.
