The ruling on giving a gift to one child to the exclusion of his siblings

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
He says: I am old, and I have a son who has built me a house. The other sons do not deprive me of anything. What is the ruling on giving to him to the exclusion of the other sons?

Answer:
It is not permissible to give a gift to one son to the exclusion of his brothers, even if he is dutiful to you. His dutifulness to you is an obligation upon him and a right you have over him, so do not give him anything to the exclusion of his brothers. What is with Allah is sufficient for him.
