Summary
The ruling does not state an explicit verdict on giving such money to children or a husband, and it does not discuss the question of dependency.

Examples given include repairing damaged toilets in mosques, doors of madrasahs and suraus, and paving potholed roads.
Written in our own words from the original fatwa — check the source before acting on it.
Kami syorkan agar wang yang diperolehi daripada sumber yang haram digunakan bagi maslahah awam bagi orang Islam.
