We have previously mentioned that the maintenance of a poor or destitute father is obligatory upon his wealthy son. However, as for a father who is not poor, his maintenance is not obligatory upon his son, and it is not permissible for him to take anything from his son's wealth except with his consent and under the conditions mentioned in no. 59751.
