The bridal gift of a woman who killed herself before consummation

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner:
He says: Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success. If a man contracts a marriage with a woman and she kills herself before consummation, does she retain the mahr?

The Shaykh:
Before consummation. She killed herself before consummation, or she died.

The questioner:
At length.

The Shaykh:
Does she retain it? She retains half of the mahr if it was specified. Yes.
