Treatment with legal ruqyah is permissible even if the person is not afflicted, and it is permissible for a Muslim to perform ruqyah on a disbeliever. It is not permissible to take from a father's money without his permission, unless the father does not provide the obligatory maintenance for his children, in which case they may take what is reasonable. Gold jewelry is not subject to zakat according to the majority of scholars. A mature daughter may dispose of her money through charity and spending without her father's permission. The sister must seek forgiveness from her mother for what she took from her.
