What do Islamic scholars say about taking money from one’s father?

Answered as per Hanafi Fiqh by Darulifta-Deoband.com
I have taken some money from my father while constructing my house and purchasing shop and it may be from bribe what he use to take(I am not sure but I don’t want any doubt in my mind as more chances of bribe money). Can I take out that amount by niyat of repay and distribute to poor to remove any doubt from my mind?

Answer

(Fatwa: 1459/1159/L=1430)

When it is not sure that it is bribe money, so one will not be asked to give it in charity, but it is advisable to give that much amount in charity in order to remove the doubt.
