The ruling on the mahr for the husband is the same as the ruling on a debt for the wealthy and the poor

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner : If he leases his house for years at a rent that he owns from the time of the contract, and it passes through a lunar year of zakah, its ruling is the ruling of a debt. The ruling on the mahr for the husband is the same as the ruling on a debt for the wealthy and the poor, because it is a debt. This is the same whether before or after consummation, because she is the owner of it. Where is it?

The Shaykh : Yes, there is a possibility that the mahr is dropped if a defect is discovered before consummation, the mahr is dropped, or if after consummation, half is dropped. But they say that the default is that it is not dropped.
