Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
He has another question. He says: Shaykh, if a father gives his son a house for him and his wife to live in, is this father, Shaykh Salih, required to give the value of the house to the rest of his children, both the older and younger males and females? It is known that his other children have not yet married.
Answer:
No, he is not required to do so, because this is considered part of the maintenance of the child, as long as the child is under his guardianship and he is providing for him from his father. This is attached to the maintenance. However, he must provide adequate and suitable housing for any of the other children who need it. Yes.
