The ruling on writing letters for a poor mother

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
It is good for you to help your mother, who does not own a house, and you want to write letters, for example, so that she can own a house. Is this permissible for a mother or not?

Answer:
Not asking is better. What is the amount with them? It should suffice for their need in food, drink, and rent. If Allah wills.
