The Ruling of a Mother Who Prohibited Her Son's Money for Herself
A mother says that she was upset with her son and told him that it is forbidden for her to take money from him. Now she wants to take money from him after reconciling with him without doing anything. Is it permissible for her to take the money from him? Does she have any obligation?
Answer
I say, and with God's help: Her saying to her son is an oath, so it is permissible for her to take money from him after her oath, and she must offer a expiation for the oath, which is feeding ten needy people, and God knows best.
