Avoiding favoritism when giving gifts to one's children
When Bashir wanted to give a gift to only one of his sons, the Prophet (SAW) said: "Fear Allah and be just among your children."
Reference: Sahih al-Bukhari and Sahih Muslim, on the authority of Al-Nu'man ibn Bashir (RA)
Explanation
This principle of fairness applies directly and specifically to how gifts are distributed among one's own children.
