Title: House tax deposit by interest money
Question: We have 2 houses, in one we live and the other one is empty because we have only four members in our family and our father died 4 year ago. The second house is closed from 4 years. We did not pay its 4 years house tax. The total amount of tax is 20000 and our monthly family income is 28000 (halal). Can we pay the house tax with bank interest?
