The ruling on selling a wife's gold without her knowledge

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
The questioner says: Shaykh, is it permissible for a husband to sell some of his wife's gold without her knowledge, and she needs this gold?

Answer:
It is not permissible, even if she did not need it. Even if she did not need it, it is not permissible except with her permission. The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said:
The wealth of a Muslim is not lawful except by the willing consent of his soul,لا يحل مال امرئ مسلم إلا بطيبة من نفسه،
Sunan ad-Daraqutni 13:78
This applies to his wife and to anyone else. Yes.
