The answer

If the father borrows money from the bank for himself and gives it to his son, the money is considered the property of the father and a debt owed by the son to the father. The son must repay the full amount he took to the father's estate. However, if the father borrows the money as an agent for the son, the money is considered the property of the son, and the son is not required to return it to the heirs if the bank forgives any part of it. As for the money allocated for the daughter's marriage, it is part of the father's estate, and the daughter is not permitted to take more than her rightful share unless the other heirs agree.
