سَأَلْتُهُ عَنِ الرَّجُلِ يَحْتَاجُ إِلَى مَالِ ابْنِهِ قَالَ يَأْكُلُ مِنْهُ مَا شَاءَ مِنْ غَيْرِ سَرَفٍ وَ قَالَ فِي كِتَابِ عَلِيٍّ ( عليه السلام ) إِنَّ الْوَلَدَ لَا يَأْخُذُ مِنْ مَالِ وَالِدِهِ شَيْئاً إِلَّا بِإِذْنِهِ وَ الْوَالِدَ يَأْخُذُ مِنْ مَالِ ابْنِهِ مَا شَاءَ وَ لَهُ أَنْ يَقَعَ عَلَى جَارِيَةِ ابْنِهِ إِذَا لَمْ يَكُنِ الِابْنُ وَقَعَ عَلَيْهَا وَ ذَكَرَ أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ( صلى الله عليه وآله ) قَالَ لِرَجُلٍ أَنْتَ وَ مَالُكَ لِأَبِيكَ .
Translation
Sahl Bin Ziyad, from Ibn Mahboub, from Al A’ala Bin Razeyn, from Muhammad Bin Muslim, (It has been narrated) from Abu Ja’far<sup>asws</sup>, said, ‘I asked him<sup>asws</sup> about the man who is needy to some wealth of his son. He<sup>asws</sup> said: ‘He can eat from it whatever he so desires to from without being extravagant’. And he<sup>asws</sup> said: ‘In the Book of Ali<sup>asws</sup> (it is written): ‘The son shall not take anything from the wealth of his father except by his permission, but the father can take from the wealth of his son whatever he so desires to, and for him (father) is that he can fall upon a slave girl of his son, when his son has not fallen upon her (copulated)’. And he<sup>asws</sup> mentioned that Rasool-Allah<sup>saww</sup> said to a man: ‘You and your wealth are for your father’.
