If a non-Jew bakes in a Jew's oven on Shabbat against the Jew's will and gives the Jew bread as payment for use of the oven — may the Jew benefit from this bread?

ShabbatBusiness With Non-Jews

Synopsis

If a non-Jew uses a Jew's oven on Shabbat without the Jew's consent and gives the Jew bread as payment, this is forbidden as Shabbat wages. However, achronim debate whether benefit is forbidden even b'dieved, and whether the rule changes if baking also occurred on weekdays.
