The ruling on a mother giving a car to one of her children
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner:
The Shaykh’s ruling on a mother giving a gift to her son.
The Shaykh:
Backbiting.
The questioner:
A gift, in that she bought him a car to meet his needs and the needs of the household, and to provide for his brothers and relatives. Is this gift permissible, or does it carry the same ruling as if the father had done it?
The Shaykh:
If the car is for the needs of the household, it is not a gift; rather, it is for their needs, and she has not given ownership of it to the son. This is a purchase for the needs, so it belongs to everyone and is not exclusive to the son. However, if she singles him out and gives him ownership of it, this is not permissible until she gives the others the same. Yes. And Allah the Exalted knows best, and may Allah send blessings and peace upon our Prophet Muhammad.
