Question:
May Allah reward you. We have another caller, Hamud, with us on the line. Hello, peace be upon you. And upon you be peace. May Allah keep you safe and grant you success, if Allah wills, in His obedience and His pleasure. Go ahead. I have a disabled person and I am taking care of him. Allah provides him with an insurance benefit and a disability right, and I take it and add it to his expenses and take care of him. I am taking care of everything. Should I take it, or how should I handle it?
Answer:
No, my brother, what is paid to him belongs to him. So you spend on him according to his needs, and if there is a surplus, you save it for him for the future. And you are rewarded, if Allah wills, for helping and serving him. You are rewarded by Allah, Mighty and Majestic. Yes.
