The ruling on a father taking his daughter's mahr
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Shaykh Salih, this questioner says: I am Muhammad from Yemen. What is the ruling on one who takes his daughter's mahr and does not give her anything from this mahr?
Answer:
This is permissible, but it is contrary to what is best; because she needs it, so he should not take it all. Rather, he takes from it and provides for her needs from her mahr. Yes.
The presenter:
Yes, may Allah bless you.
