Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
A man says: I have four sons, one of whom is married, and the father has a building consisting of apartments. Is it permissible for the father to house this married son in one of the apartments, knowing that this married son is not in need? Some people told him that this is not justice among the sons.
Answer:
Yes, if the son is wealthy, he may not house him except for rent, or he must give his brothers the same. But if this son is in need and cannot afford to rent, then he may house him in the apartment, and there is no harm. Yes, or in the building. Yes.
The presenter:
May Allah reward you,
