Answer

In the name of Allah, Most Gracious, Most Merciful

Assalaamu `alaykum waRahmatullahi Wabarakatoh

The Wudhu will not break by merely changing the diaper of a baby.

The excess of R20 000 must be disposed off by giving it to the poor and needy.

You may replace the interest amount with other monies and make Tawbah to Allah for the mistake.

And Allah knows best
