Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
May Allah bless you. I move on to another questioner who asks: What are the limits of a guardian’s disposal of orphans’ wealth?
Answer:
For the orphans’ interests, he disposes of their wealth for their benefit, such as spending on them, paying the zakah on their wealth, and growing the wealth if he can grow it through permissible investment. All of this is either obligatory or recommended in the orphans’ wealth. He must also preserve it from loss and not take anything from it for himself except the amount of his wage if he is in need. Yes.
