Question:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success. This questioner says to me: My son has taken a sum of money from my wealth, my son has taken a sum of money from my wealth without my knowledge, and he has wasted it. Is it obligatory for me to give his brothers an amount like this?
Answer:
Did you give it to him? Demand the money from him, or did you not give it to him so that you would equalize with his brothers? Yes, but do you have the right to demand the money from him? Yes.
