Does the saying of the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him), “You and your wealth belong to your father,” give the father the right to take from his son’s wealth to give to another of his sons?

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner: Our Shaykh, regarding this, we asked previously, but it may need some possible details;
You and your wealth belong to your father أنت ومالك لأبيك
the hadith of the Messenger (peace and blessings be upon him).

The Shaykh: Yes.

The questioner: I mean, to what extent does this apply? Based on the fact that, for example, the father might ask the daughter.

Another questioner: Peace be upon you.

The questioner : And upon you be peace, and the mercy of Allah and His blessings.
I mean, he takes from his son’s wealth and gives it to the second brother, for example; he takes from this man’s wealth and gives it to his other brothers?

The Shaykh: The father?

The questioner: The father takes from the wealth, I mean.

The Shaykh: From one of his sons and gives it to his other sons; yes, and are they in need?

The questioner: By Allah, I do not know = -- and peace be upon you -- = the questioner did not specify, I mean.

The Shaykh: And upon you peace.
Yes?

The questioner: The questioner did not specify, but assuming.

The Shaykh: No, if they are not in need, he does not do this; rather, it is the need that justifies for him taking from one of his wealthy sons to meet the needs of those who are in need.
