Taking from the Assistance for Orphans
Two orphaned children whose father was martyred, and their mother remarried and left them at their grandfather's house without inquiring about them. Their grandfather's house consists of a grandfather, grandmother, two daughters, and a young man. There are food and financial assistance for orphans. Is the assistance that comes to the grandfather's house forbidden or permissible? Does it mean it is forbidden to use the assistance for everyone in the house? Knowing that the grandfather and grandmother are the ones spending on the house?
Answer
I say, and with God's success: If these aids are provided for the two children, then they have the right to them, and this aid can be considered in whole or in part as a substitute for spending on them, thus allowing for consumption from it for the rest of the family, and God knows best.
