Question
I have a commitment from my parents to pay part of the mortgage on my apartment. At the same time, I give my parents a large sum of money every month as tithes. The question is: Is it permissible to tell my parents that I will take their mortgage in my name and pay it from my tithe money? Thank you very much.
Answer
Hello
Helping parents when they are in need is the most excellent and praiseworthy mitzvah of charity!
And certainly, in this way, by relieving them of the burden of a heavy and constant obligation, there is no equal to this charity.
