The Handling of Usury Money

Question
A woman whose husband passed away, and he was a doctor, has five children. Their father left them a reward from his work, and the money remained in the party council for a period due to Corona. After that, the money tripled. Should she spend on her children from this money, or is it considered usury? If it is usury, does she have the right to dispose of it without her children's consent?
Answer
I say, and with God's help: If the increase is through usury, it is not permissible to spend from it; because it is a foul gain, and God knows best.
