Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
The questioner says: A woman works with her husband in the shop and gives charity without his knowledge. Is that permissible for her?

Answer:
A small amount of charity, such as giving a beggar a small thing, is fine. This is what is customary, and there is no harm in it. However, giving a large amount is not permissible except with the husband's consent. Yes.
