My father lent me money for a business project, but the project failed, so my father waived the debt. Do my brothers have to be given the same amount?

The questioner:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success. The questioner says: I took money from my father, may Allah grant him success, for a business project, and my father refused to record it as a loan. Now, after a year, the project has not succeeded, and my father wants to waive the debt from me. Is he required to give my brothers the same amount he waived for me, or what is the guidance?
The Shaykh:
Yes, he is required to give his brothers the same amount he gave him. Fear Allah and be just among your children. Yes.
The presenter:
You are alive.
The Shaykh:
And Allah the Exalted knows best, and may Allah send prayers and peace upon our Prophet Muhammad.
