Should he build a house or give the money to his father to get married?
Question: 5222
Should I give my father what he needs of my wealth – if he asks for it – when I want to build a house and my father wants to get married? I am renting a house and I could continue renting, but I really want a house of my own. Should I give priority to building my own house or do I have to give the
money to my father so he can get married?
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, who answered as follows:
He has to give his father what he needs to get married, especially if
his father is in great need of getting married.
Question: if the father wanted to build a house and asked his son for
the money, should he give priority to his own house or his father’s house?
Answer: he should give priority to his own house over his father’s
house.
And Allaah knows best.
