The obligation of justice between children in gifts
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
The questioner says: A man has sons and daughters, and he gave the sons amounts of money and granted them lands as gifts, without giving anything to the daughters. Is that permissible for him?
Answer:
It is obligatory for the father to be just between his children, both male and female, and likewise the mother must be just; because the Messenger (peace and blessings be upon him) said:Sahih al-Bukhari 2587 Thus he said—(peace and blessings be upon him): Sahih al-Bukhari 2587.
So it is obligatory for the father, if he gives them lands, or money, or camels, or sheep, or anything else, to be just between the males and the females [Al-Nisa: 11] like inheritance. So if the man gives one hundred riyals, he gives the daughter fifty riyals, and if he gives the son ten thousand, he gives the daughter five thousand... and so on. And if he gives the son sheep, or camels, or cows, he gives the daughter the same, half. Yes.
