The questioner:
Is it permissible for a father to take his son's right by force?
The Shaykh:
It is permissible for a father to take from his son's wealth what does not harm him and what he does not need; because the son and what he owns belong to his father. The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: Sunan Ibn Majah 2290Sahih (Darussalam) So if the father is in need, and the son has wealth that is in excess of his needs, then the father may take it. In fact, he may take it even if he is not in need; because he is the father, and he owns the son's wealth. So the son's wealth belongs to the father, as the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said.
The presenter:
Sweet on the topic.
The Shaykh:
But the father should not exaggerate in exercising this right to the point of harming the son. Rather, he should take from his son's wealth what does not harm him and what the son does not need for his specific needs. There is no harm and no reciprocating harm.
