Question:<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

If a parent gifts money to his child who is not mature, is he allowed to take it back at any time?<\/span><\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

In the name of Allah, the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

Answer:<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

No, once a gift is given to a child or an adult, whether mature or immature, and the receiver has accepted it, the giver no longer has any right to claim that gift back.<\/span><\/p>\n

“It is not permissible for the giver to retract their gift after its acceptance, whether the gift was for an adult or a minor.”<\/span><\/p>\n
