The answer

The Shari'ah encourages affection and love among Muslims, especially between parents and children, and warns against allowing Satan to corrupt their relationship. There is no harm in debating with parents kindly, within the bounds of Islamic etiquette, without overcoming them or causing harm; otherwise, it would be considered disobedience. If one of the parents requests money, their request must be fulfilled unless it causes harm to the son. If it causes harm, one should politely apologize, manage their anger, and promise to fulfill their request when it becomes possible.
