I am a student. I have no income, I live on the pocket money my father gave me. Can I give sadaqah from the money I have saved?

Although it seems like a very fine detail, we can state a rule like this: If your father gives it to you for a special purpose, saying "YOU WILL CONSUMPT ONLY AS EDUCATIONAL EXPENSE", you must adhere to that condition. If he gives it as a general pocket money, you can give sadaqah from him as you wish.
