The answer

If what is authorized is taking medicine only for the wife and children, then it is not permissible to take it for the mother or siblings. Whatever the questioner took, he is obligated to guarantee its return, either in kind or in value, to the responsible authority. If he is ignorant of its quantity, he should strive to clear his conscience. He is not required to inform them of this. He must repent, seek forgiveness, and resolve not to return to such an act, for it is a betrayal of trust.
