Gifting one's divorced daughter more than the other daughters

· 25 Jumada I 1440 AH1 min readEnglish

Question

I have four daughters. Three of them are married and the youngest one is a student. Out of all four, one married daughter was separated (got Khula) and is living with her parents (me and my wife) along with her daughter (my grand-daughter). Please guide me:

If I sell my house wherein we are living, can I gift 50% of the cost of the house to my seperated (Khulah yafta) daughter in my life?

Answer

If there is a valid reason to give 50 % to just one daughter and not the others then there is no problem. As a courtesy mention it to the others so that they do not have any ill-feelings.

And Allah Ta'ala (الله تعالى) knows best.
