The answer

It is permissible for you to dispose of the alcohol your father hides; in fact, it is obligatory upon you if possible, provided that it does not lead to a greater evil. You should employ stratagems to achieve this to avoid clashing with your father. There is no sin upon you if you say you did not see it, should you be asked about it; it is preferable to use equivocation in such a case. Scholars have stipulated the permissibility of lying under certain conditions to achieve a legitimate benefit that cannot be obtained otherwise.
