The financial maintenance of a poor husband for his wealthy wife and her clothing

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner:
Honorable Shaykh, a poor husband has a wealthy wife. Where does he get a moderate benefit from when he is poor?

The Shaykh:
What is the ruling, may you be preserved, if he is poor and she is wealthy? If she permits him to stay with her and is satisfied with what he gives her, praise be to Allah. But if she does not permit it...

The questioner:
...in winter and summer, until I saw the easy way she sees it.

The Shaykh:
Yes, indeed. And if he does not reach the threshold, he is required to provide winter clothing. Even if she has winter clothing from the previous winter, he is required to provide her with clothing. Likewise, he is required to provide summer clothing, even if she has summer clothing from the previous summer. It is her right. Yes.
