Is Stealing From Goyim Allowed In Judaism? No, Rabbi Yaron Reuven says it's worse than Stealing From Jews, because in addition to being forbidden according to the Torah, it's Chillul HaShem. TIKKUN SHOVAVIM Is Upon Us. The word SHOVAVIM is an acronym for the six weekly Torah portions Shemot, Vaera, Bo, Beshelach, Yitro and Mishpatim. The Holy Kabbalists Teach That This Six Week Period Is An Auspicious Time To Do TeShuva For Any Sexual Immorality Sins From The Past.

0:00If a person stole from a non-Jew, the same applies: you have to return it to the non-Jew also. You're not allowed to steal from a Jew, and you're not allowed to steal from a non-Jew. In fact, the Rambam and several other poskim say that it's even worse to steal from a non-Jew than it is to steal from a Jew. The reason why is because if you steal from a Jew, that Jew is simply going to say that you're a bad person. But if a non-Jew sees that you stole from him, that non-Jew is not only going to think you're a bad person, he's going to think that all Jews are bad people, which causes a desecration of God's name (Chillul Hashem). So stealing from a non-Jew is much, much worse. Hence, the reason why a person has to exert some effort to return to the person that they stole from, regardless of the amount. Little amounts, big amounts, it doesn't make a difference. Now, if the person is simply, like I said, not available and you've tried finding him, legitimately tried finding him, not like you called the same number you have from 35 years ago, it didn't work and you simply gave up. No, like you actually tried finding this person and he's not available, he's gone.
1:06then again, you could go and give it to a public cause. If you would get in trouble by giving it back legally, you could go to jail or something like that. However, you can give it to a public cause. But don't automatically assume you can give it to a public cause, because sometimes a person will do that when it's very easy for them to find the person they stole from; they're just embarrassed.
