Is it permissible to give charity from money received from one's mother, knowing that it is not one's own special income, and must charity come from one's own special income?
Source: FtawySummary from Ftawy's records · added here Sep 2, 2026
If you took money from your mother without her permission and consent, this is impermissible, and you must return it to her or seek her forgiveness and absolution. However, if you took the money with her consent, then it is yours to dispose of as you wish. It is permissible for your mother to take a small amount of money from her husband, according to custom, but anything beyond that is not permissible.
