Mufti Ebrahim Desai · Accepted Answer

We do not know if you are a male or a female. If you are a female and you are being supported by your father, then it is not permissible for you to work. If you are a male, then in principle, you have an independent Shar?ee right to manage your own monetary issues. You will be within your Shar?ee right to give any amount of charity from your earnings.

However, if your father disapproves of your action, you may stop giving charity as it is not compulsory to do so. You may save the money and offer it to your mother or father with the intention of charity. You will get double reward for that, charity and maintaining ties.

and Allah Ta'ala Knows Best
