The ruling on a guardian of orphans taking from the funds that reach them

The questioner:
May Allah reward you, Honorable Shaykh. Abu Thamer from Riyadh, please go ahead. Peace be upon you. Peace and the mercy of Allah.

The Shaykh:
And upon you, peace. May Allah welcome you. It seems there are two orphans. If Allah wills. We receive assistance, and I bought us lands, and I bought, and I bought them a house. Most of it is for them. That is fine, and the second one receives assistance from the government, and some things; if I am short of something, I take from it.

The questioner:
We, O Shaykh, want to ask: do we have a right to this thing, or do we have no right to it?

The Shaykh:
No, you have no right. These are the orphans' funds. You must preserve for them what comes to them from the government, what is inherited by them, and what is given to them as assistance; you preserve all of it for them.

The questioner:
Yes, yes, yes. The lands and his house. I bought us three lands and a house.

The Shaykh:
Yes, preserve their money for them and do not take anything for yourself from it.

The questioner:
If I took.

The Shaykh:
You return it, meaning you take it.

The questioner:
The money; do I have to return it or not?

The Shaykh:
You return it, you return the money. May Allah guide you. You return the money.

The questioner:
If Allah wills.

The Shaykh:
With their right, with their money. Yes.

The questioner:
If Allah wills.
