Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Honorable Shaykh, if a husband refuses to provide maintenance and it is taken from him without his consent, does the husband sin by refusing?
Answer:
He sins by refusing, but his right is dropped because you took it; his right is dropped, but he sins by his refusal and delay. This is not good conduct between the spouses. And Allah (Exalted and Majestic is He) says: “And live with them in kindness.” Yes.
