What should a person who accumulated his wealth from haraam sources do?

Dear Brothers & Sisters,
As-Salaamu-Alaikum wa Rahmatullahi wa Barakatuh. (May Allah's Peace, Mercy and Blessings be upon all of you)
One of our brothers/sisters has asked this question:
A man worked in a haraam field (dealing in hashish) and made a lot of money and had children. He owns cars, farms and land, all of it from haraam money. He wants to repent – what should he do with his wife, wealth, cars and farms?.
(There may be some grammatical and spelling errors in the above statement. The forum does not change anything from questions, comments and statements received from our readers for circulation in confidentiality.)

Answer:
Praise be to Allaah.

He should get rid of the haraam wealth by spending it in charitable ways. With regard to his wife and children, he need not worry about them. 

And Allaah is the Source of strength. 

Whatever written of Truth and benefit is only due to Allah's Assistance and Guidance, and whatever of error is of me. Allah Alone Knows Best and He is the Only Source of Strength.
