Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner:
He says: Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success. A son works with his father, and his salary comes to him from a distant place. Does the father give him something without giving the same to his other children?
The Shaykh:

The questioner:
A son works with his father, and his salary comes to him from a distant place. Is it permissible for the father to give him something without giving the same to his other children?
The Shaykh:
If the son paid his salary to his father to keep it for him, it is the son’s property. If he paid it to him as part of the father’s money, out of respect for the father, then the father owns it. The son cannot take back a gift that his father has received; the son does not take back his gift to his father after he has received it. This is unlike the father, who may take back what he gifted to his son. Yes.
