On who should child support grant be spent?

Answered as per Hanafi Fiqh by Muftionline.co.za

Q: Regarding the child support grant: Does it have to be given or utilised for the child or can it be used on other expenses? The grant is issued to the primary care giver/mother of the child.

Bismillaah

A: If the grant is meant for the child only then it should be used for anything that relates to the child, be it food or any other item, as long as it is used for any matter that is related to him.

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