The obligation to give the heirs their share of the inheritance

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
I have a son who is 17 years old. His mother passed away, and he has an inheritance from her. Now, his uncle bought him a car, and he had an accident with it. They asked for the cost of the repairs, and he is not aware of this money. The car cost 2000 riyals to repair. Should I give him this amount?The Shaykh: Is this an orphan in your care?The questioner: Yes, that is correct.

The Shaykh: Do you have money for him?The questioner: I have money for him.
And his uncle bought him a car, and an accident happened to the car, and the cost of repairing it was two thousand riyals.

The Shaykh: Give it to him.

The questioner: And they asked for this same amount, and he does not know about it. Should I give it to him?The Shaykh: Give it to him; because if you do not give it to him, the car will remain unusable.

The questioner: Do I give him the money all at once or little by little?The Shaykh: Give him only what he needs.

The questioner: He is 17 years old.

The Shaykh: Is he of sound mind?The questioner: Yes.

The Shaykh: Then give him all his money!
