Answer

All perfect praise be to Allaah, The Lord of the Worlds. I testify that there is none worthy of worship except Allaah, and that Muhammad is His slave and Messenger.

There is nothing wrong with benefitting from this money as you wish in doing something allowable like paying for ‘Umrah for your parents.

Allaah Knows best.
