Accelerating the Deferred Portion of the Bridal Gift and Delaying It
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner:
We remind our honorable brothers and sisters of the program's phone number, which the producer of this episode will display on the screen shortly. We also remind you to keep your questions clear and concise, within the scope of our religious matters, and to ensure the caller is away from the television set so that we can hear him clearly over the phone. What is your opinion, Shaykh, on accelerating the deferred portion of the bridal gift?
The Shaykh:
Yes.
The questioner:
Deferring the deferred portion of the bridal gift at the time of writing the contract.
The Shaykh:
There is nothing wrong with that. The bridal gift is either paid in a single lump sum, or the whole of it is deferred, or part of it is deferred; because it is a right of the wife over her contracting husband, so if she is satisfied with that, there is nothing wrong with deferring all of it or part of it? Yes.
