Question:
He says: Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success, regarding the students in elementary or middle school,
those who have not [yet] reached pubertyوَالَّذِينَ لَمْ يَبْلُغُوا الْحُلُمَ
[An-Nur 24:58]
, is it permissible for their father to take the salaries that come to them from the memorization schools, or is it not permissible for him to do so?

Answer:
It is permissible for him, because your children are part of your earnings, so he may take what is given to them because he is their father, and they are part of his earnings. You and your wealth belong to your father.
