Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
This is no problem, O Shaykh. Umm Mubarak from Yemen is asking about the criterion for obedience to the wife. She says: Because he sometimes prevents me from certain personal matters, such as buying clothes.
Answer:
She obeys her husband in his right; his right is upon her, and she must fulfill it. As for everything else, she disposes of her wealth as she sees fit: she gives charity, she establishes endowments from her wealth. It is hers. The husband has no authority over her to prevent her from disposing of her wealth. No, there is no restriction on her in the paths of good. Yes.
The presenter:
Yes, may Allah bless you.
