Question:

I am raising money for Palestine, can I accept donations from non-Muslims.

Answer:

Bismillah

In the name of Allah, the most Beneficent, the most Merciful.

It will be permissible to accept non-Muslim donations for Palestine, even though their wealth may be questionable, due to the principal of the ownership changing (Tabdeel-e- Milk), when they give their wealth to a Muslim it becomes lawful for the Muslim to use.
