Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
The asking sister says: Shaykh, if a woman inherits money from her father, is it permissible for her to dispose of it without her husband's permission, and to what extent?

Answer:
Yes, a woman has the freedom to own and the freedom to dispose of her wealth, and her husband may not prevent her from doing so, as long as her disposal is within the limits of what is prescribed, without extravagance or waste, for he has no right to prevent her from moderate spending.
