He bought lands and registered them in the names of his sons, while he has daughters to whom he gave nothing
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Q: I inform you that I am a married man, and Allah has blessed me with (3) sons and (5) daughters. I purchased (3) plots of land and transferred them into the names of the three sons only, excluding the daughters, and built residential and commercial buildings on them, without any objection from the daughters, knowing that they are married and in a good financial situation. Is the action I took regarding the sons in accordance with the law of Allah? Please guide us, may Allah reward you, and may Allah preserve and protect you.
A: This action you took is not correct; because it is not permissible to give a gift to some of the children while excluding others. Therefore, you must be fair among them by giving to all of them, with the male receiving the share of two females, or by giving to none of them; based on the saying of the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him):Sahih al-Bukhari 2587 .

Be afraid of Allah, and be just to your children.
