How is the specific bridal gift returned to the husband when the marriage contract is annulled?

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner : This is Jamal ibn Sa'id. If a husband gives his wife specific items as her bridal gift, such as clothing, and then she asks him to annul the marriage, how is the bridal gift returned to him in the following cases? She has used them, knowing that the husband generally does not benefit if the clothing is returned to him in both cases; he does not benefit.

The Shaykh : You made a spelling error; if it is not "lamaz," you should write the nun. You deleted the nun and doubled the lam. In any case, you should know that the issue of newness applies when the husband wants it, if he is satisfied with the clothing as it is, there is no harm. But if he says, "I want something new," the matter is up to him. Yes, or if he asks for money, there is no problem; the matter is in his hands.
