The answer

We advise the children to return what their father favored them with, such as apartments and cars, to the estate, because justice in giving gifts among children is obligatory. If the father dies before [achieving] justice, the gift becomes established for those who were favored, according to the majority of scholars. However, some scholars hold the view that the gift is void and must be returned even after the father's death.
