Partnership and then separation

Question

Question: Zayd, Khalid and Amr are all three the full sons of Bakr. Each of them was married in turn, and Bakr set all three sons up separately and divided the whole of the property equally. Some time later Bakr said to the youngest son: “Go and live with your elder brother Zayd, because, as your household is small, Zayd can be helped; and when you consider it necessary, separate on the basis of this same division.

Answer

This demand of Zayd’s is not right: Zayd has no share whatsoever in the fund money or in that room.
