Taking What Remains of the Money the Father Gave to Purchase Items

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success. The questioner says: If my father gave me a sum of money to buy some things and items, and some of it remained, is it permissible for me to take it without his knowledge?

Answer:
No. If he told you that if anything remains, it is yours, then take it. But if he entrusted you with this, you are required to return the remainder to him. And if he gave it to you without giving it to your siblings, that is problematic. Yes.
