The Meaning of the Hadith: You and Your Wealth Belong to Your Father
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
My first question has three brief questions. Please go ahead. The first: Please clarify, may Allah preserve you, the hadith "The son and his wealth belong to his father," and does the grandfather block the inheritance of the son's children after his death?
Answer:
Yes, the hadith is authentic. A man came to the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) and said, “My father is taking my wealth.” The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: So it is permissible for a father to take from his son’s or daughter’s wealth what he does not need and which does not harm him; what does not harm the child, the parent may take from him. Because, as Mishkat al-Masabih 2770, the child should be pleased with this, and this is considered part of dutifulness to the parents. Yes.
