Every time I earn money, I hand it over to my father to spend on himself and the rest of the family. Is it permissible for me to set aside a portion of my income?

Question:
In this session, Honorable Shaykh, Shaykh Salih asks: Since I got married, I have not put anything aside for myself or my family. This is because every time I earn money, I hand it over to my father to spend on himself and the rest of the family. Is it permissible for me to set aside a portion of my income for myself, my wife, and my children, or is that not permissible? May Allah reward you with good.

Answer:
In the name of Allah, the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful. All praise is due to Allah, Lord of the worlds, and may Allah send blessings and peace upon our Prophet Muhammad, his family, and all his Companions. To proceed: The questioner is to be thanked for his dutifulness to his father and for giving him the money he earns, for this indicates goodness and dutifulness to his father. However, there is nothing wrong with taking from your salary what you need, and paying the rest to your father. You combine both benefits: you set aside what you, your wife, and your children need, and you are kind to your father with what remains. The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "Begin with those you are responsible for, so provide for yourself, your wife, and your children. This is what you begin with first, and whatever remains from that is for the parents." Yes.
