The Gains from Deception

Question
My mother treats people in an unlawful way, such as through magic and similar practices, and she brings us food from these patients. Is it permissible for us to eat this food, and will my prayers be accepted if I eat it?
Answer
I say, and with God's help: this earning is forbidden and vile, and it is not permissible to consume it or benefit from it. As for your prayer, it is valid, and God knows best.
