Answer
Praise be to Allah, and peace and blessings be upon the Messenger of Allah and his family.
We put this question to Shaykh Muhammad ibn Saalih al-‘Uthaymeen, may Allaah preserve him, and he answered as follows:
Yes, it is permissible for you to eat from his wealth, so long as you are in need, and it is his duty to spend on you.
