Taking a father to court for taking his son's house

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success. A questioner says: Is it permissible for me to take my father to court because he took my house from me and rented it out without my permission? I tried to reconcile the matter, but he refused. Is it permissible for me to sue him?

Answer:
You and your wealth belong to your father. It is not permissible for you to complain about your father, nor to litigate against him. Yes.
