A Gift to One Son and Not Others

Question
Is it permissible for a father to give money to one of his sons from the inheritance while he is alive to build a house and get married, without giving the other children anything, knowing that there are daughters in need?
Answer
I say, and with God's help: It is recommended for a father to be fair among his children during his lifetime, and he should not give one of them more than the others without need or reason; for it involves injustice and leads to increased animosity among siblings. And God knows best.
