Sons are not permitted to transfer their father's license without his consent, even if they spend its proceeds on him. Similarly, a father is not permitted to designate his sons for the relinquishment of a license that holds financial value, unless there is a legitimate religious justification. This is because preferring some children over others without a valid reason is religiously forbidden.
