If a father gives his son money to perform Hajj with, is he obligated to accept it?

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question : If the father offers it, saying, "My son, take this as the expense for Hajj; perform it with your companions," is it obligatory for you?

Answer : It appears that it is obligatory for him as well, because he falls under the statement of "whoever is able to do so," and because there is no favor in that. It is not a favor on his part. So the result is that if someone who has no claim of favor over him offers him the expense, he is able to do so. As for one who fears that he will be favored, even in the future, he is not able to do so. The mother, the mother may be more severe in her claim than the father. Yes.
