Assisting one’s brother financially

Answered as per Hanafi Fiqh by Muftionline.co.za

Q: My elder brother is very ill, but my wife says don’t give him money because he did not help us when we needed it. I am very upset with this matter. Please tell me that if I send some money to him without telling my wife, is this right according to Islam?

Bismillaah

A: You should help him. That is your duty. To avoid trouble don’t inform your wife.

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