A woman giving charity from her husband's wealth

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
We conclude this session with a question from Sister Umm 'Aishah. She asks: Is it permissible for a woman to give charity from her husband's wealth if she has no wealth of her own?

Answer:
It is permissible according to what is customary, provided there is no harm or injustice. This means giving the beggar or someone similar to him what satisfies his request. There is nothing wrong with this; the woman is permitted to do so from her husband's wealth, and the reward is shared between them. Yes.
