The ruling on a spendthrift’s wife seeking divorce while he is under guardianship

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question : Yes.

Answer : If the maternal uncle is unable to pay, because if divorce is permissible without payment, it is even more permissible with payment. The woman should not hand the money over to him; if she does, the acceptance is invalid and she is not absolved of the debt unless it is paid to his guardian. If the money is lost, she is liable for it. That is, if it is lost in the possession of the spendthrift husband, she is liable for it.
