She says: She came to perform 'Umrah and completed the rituals, but the husband only provides food and drink and does not give her any money. Is the husband required to give the wife money in addition to food and drink?
Answer:
If he provides food, drink, and clothing, he has fulfilled what is required of him. It is not obligatory for him to give her money. He is required to provide her with food, provide her with drink, provide her with clothing, and provide her with housing. If he provides these things, he is not required to give her coins. However, if he wishes to compensate her with coins for these matters and she agrees to that, there is no harm.
