الحقوق القانونية والمالية الواجبة على الوالد لولده

مرحبًا،

أنا أستعلم بشأن القوانين في دولة الإمارات. أنا مواطن بريطاني مولود في شروزبري، لكن والدي من دبي.

يُذكر في القانون أن الابن العربي البكر يحق له الحصول على ثروة / أراضي والده. لقد عشت في إنجلترا طوال حياتي لأنه لم يكن لدي الخيار عندما كنت أصغر سنًا حيث وقعت أحداث معينة.

إذا بحثت عن هذه القصة على جوجل، ستجد قصتي التي كانت حديث الأخبار الدولية. لقد تصدرت هذه القصة عناوين الصحف عندما حاول والدي خطفي وإعادتي إلى إمارة دبي.

في الحقيقة، أريد معرفة المزيد من المعلومات حول مستحقاتي القانونية لأنني الآن في الثانية والعشرين من عمري.

Dear Questioner,

Thanks for your question and kindly note that what is written in your question - the firstborn Arab son is entitled to his father's fortune/ land - is not correct nor accurate, especially that you did not elaborate when and what conditions will entitle the son to such assets.

In order to advise you correctly, please elaborate more on what are you looking for in your question.

You have to specify what are you asking about, like for example, do you want to understand your legal rights and entitlements in terms of financial support during the lifetime of your father?

Did your father die and you are asking about your entitlements as per your share among other legal heirs?

Do you know if your father has other children or kids from another marriage?

All such information matter to answer you correctly.

I would advise you to collect the relevant information and then contact me through email to advise you accordingly.

Best regards,

Ahmed Elnaggar

Hello,

Thank you for the rapid response.

I'd like to know my legal rights and entitlements in terms of financial support during the lifetime of my father.

And am I entitled to anything when he dies?

I hope this answers your questions. I am a UAE citizen and a British citizen also.

Kind regards,

A. H.

As you are currently an adult of 22 years old, you are not entitled to any financial support during the lifetime of your father.

If he is willingly giving you any kind of financial support as an adult, this is up to him but not a legal obligation.

After his death, you may claim your right to inherit your share of his legacy as per the sharia distribution if both of you are Muslim / UAE nationals.

Best regards,

Ahmed Elnaggar
