The most of the money

Dear English experts

I have a question about the sentence "The most of the money...".

1. He wired most money to ABC fund for donation.
2. He wired most of money to ABC fund for donation.
3. He wired the most of money to ABC fund for donation.
4. He wired most of the money to ABC fund for donation.

5. He wired the most of the money to ABC fund for donation.

Which above sentence is correct? or It depends on the context?

Thank you
<div></div>

Thank you. I thought 定冠詞 “the" should always need to be put before "most". Now I understand. Appreciate.
