When is it permissible to hand over the orphans' money to them?

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
He says: I am the guardian of some orphans, and the eldest among them has reached maturity. Is it permissible for me to hand over the affairs of his brothers to him? What is the best way to ensure that I am free from liability? Should this be done through the court, or is it sufficient to have two witnesses testify to it?

Answer:
The method that is necessary in this case is that you return to the court. You return to the court. So if you see that this eldest son of the deceased has the competence and the qualification, then you go to the judge and dissolve the guardianship that was given to you, and he assigns it to this eldest son before the judge. As for you doing this yourself and having two witnesses testify to it, that is not acceptable.
