Justice Among Children in Sweets and the Like

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner:
He says: Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success, you mentioned in the previous lesson the obligation of justice in giving gifts to children, such that the son is given the equivalent of two daughters. Does this include sweets and the like that he brings for his children?

The Shaykh:
Does it fall under it?

The questioner:
In that, the sweets and the like that he brings for the children, he gives to the son.

The Shaykh:
Yes, yes, even the sweets, even the kiss.

The questioner:
Do not single out one child by kissing him.

The Shaykh:
And.

The questioner:
Nor calling him by name or praising him over the others, for this angers the others, causing hatred in their hearts for their brother and undutifulness to their father.

The Shaykh:
He is just among his children in everything. Yes.
