Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question : May Allah reward you. He says: Is it permissible for us to take from our father's money without his permission, if it does not harm his wealth?
Answer : This is a son asking: Is it permissible for me to take from my father's money without his permission, if it does not harm him? The answer is no, it is not permissible except for the obligatory maintenance. If his father does not provide him with the obligatory maintenance, he may take from his father's money without his permission to the extent of his maintenance. The evidence for this is that Hind bint 'Utbah came to the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) and complained to him about her husband, that he did not give her what was sufficient for her and her child. He said: "Take from his wealth what is sufficient for you and your child in a proper manner." As for the father, he may take from his son's money without his permission, on the condition that the son is not harmed by it.
