Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
May Allah reward you. The questioner, Abu 'Abdullah from al-Qassim, says: Do the supplementary items a woman uses, such as perfumes, cleaning products, and permissible cosmetics, fall under the financial maintenance a father owes his daughters? It is known that all or most girls, with very few exceptions, use such things?
Answer:
It is not obligatory. However, it falls under the category of being kind to one's children, provided it does not reach the level of extravagance, or of the daughter or woman adorning herself when going out and displaying her adornment. If it is a customary matter and something that does not lead to harm, then it is a kindness from the father to his child. Yes.
