Sharing one's salary with one's parents and grandparents

Q: I will be working in a company for internship very shortly. There are 3 questions.

1. How should I divide this money in accordance to Deen?

2. I would like to know how should I divide this money among my parents and my 1 younger sister?

3. Is it necessary to provide for my paternal and maternal grandparents if they are wealthy?

A:

1-2. Preference is to the parents, and take good care of your sister according to your means.

3. As a gesture of generosity and kindness, you should give them something as well.

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