The questioner:
We are still with the calls from our brothers and sisters. Abu Abdullah from Makkah, please go ahead, my brother Abu Abdullah. Peace be upon you and Allah's mercy and blessings. And upon you be peace and Allah's mercy and blessings. Please, Abu Abdullah. I have two questions, may Allah be pleased with you. Okay, lower the television volume a bit, Abu Abdullah, please. Okay, okay. Please, the Shaykh is with you. Shaykh, regarding a son of mine who earned a piece of land, and he is married and living with me, and he earned this piece of land, is it my right, for example, to make his brothers partners with him in this piece of land?
The Shaykh:
The land is his property.
The questioner:
The land, yes, the land is all his, yes, and the deed was issued in his name.
The Shaykh:
And your son.
The questioner:
Yes.
The Shaykh:
It is not permissible for you to give his brothers from his wealth except with his permission and consent.
The questioner:
Okay, what if he cannot, for example, if he is forced, for example, if he is coerced, meaning he is under duress?
The Shaykh:
No, no, my brother, this is his wealth; you do not give it to his brothers except with his consent.
The questioner:
Instead of them.
The presenter:
May Allah reward you with good. Thank you.
