Equalizing between sons and daughters in purchasing cars

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success. The questioner says: I have a number of children, and whenever one of them grew up and needed a car, I bought him a car and registered it in his name. I was told that I must be fair with the daughters and give them from the amount what I gave the sons, meaning the value of the car. Is this correct?

Answer:
A car is among the necessities, like maintenance. The one who needs it has a right to it, and the one who does not need it has no right to it, because he did not need it. It is like maintenance among the necessities. However, I see that you should not register it in your name; you should register it in your own name and let him use it for his need until the issue is resolved and nothing happens between the children. Otherwise, buying cars for the sons for their need is not considered maintenance. You give each person who needs it his need. Yes.
