Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success. Regarding the saying of the Messenger (peace and blessings be upon him)
One who gets back his gift is like a dog which vomits and then swallows that vomit.العائد في هبته كالكلب يقيء ثم يعود في قيئه
Sahih Muslim 1622g
. He says: Some of the scholars have made an exception for the father, stating that it is permissible for him

Answer:
Yes, the father. Some of the scholars hold this view. This is in the hadith, in the saying of the Messenger (peace and blessings be upon him)
You and your wealth belong to your father,أنت ومالك لأبيك،
. The father has the right to take from his son's wealth, and he has the right to take back his gift to him.
