Question Summary: Do I have to make a payment for a haram service? Question Detail:
Assalamualaikum,
Answer :
In the Name of Allah, the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful.
As-salāmu ‘alaykum wa-rahmatullāhi wa-barakātuh.
It is pleasing to note that you are trying to change your life. You should consolidate your intention through the obedience of Allah Ta’ala. We do not know what you mean by haram. Nevertheless, if the services were indeed haram, then you do not have to pay for such services. Shari'ah does not recognise haram services.[1]
And Allah Ta’āla Knows Best

(قال: ولا يجوز الإستئجار على الغناء والنوح، وكذا سائر الملاهي) لأنه استئجار على المعصية والمعصية لا تستحق بالعقد
