What's about the things we like in the past?

What if the thing we like or dislike happens in the past? For example, I hate that you gave her the money or I like that you helped that old lady.

Bonjour Johnny,

Then you need the past subjunctive:

Je déteste que tu lui aies donné l'argent.

Can the haïr be used in this example instead of détester que?
