Is it permissible to take money from one's mother in exchange for providing food, transportation, and other necessities?

1 min readAlso available in العربية

It is permissible for a brother to take payment for a service rendered to his sister as long as she has wealth, provided she is aware and consenting. As for the mother, she must be served with kindness gratuitously, though it is permissible to take payment for services exceeding the usual, also with her awareness and consent. It is better to offer these services voluntarily due to the immense reward therein.
