Is it permissible for a man to give a portion of his wealth to his wife during his lifetime? Is this portion specified by a certain percentage?
Answer:
Yes, it is permissible for the husband to give his wife some wealth; there is no objection to that. What is prohibited is giving to some of his children while withholding from others. It is obligatory that if he wants to give to his children, he be equal among them, and not give to some while depriving others. As for the wife, there is nothing wrong with him giving her from his wealth whatever he wishes, without a specific limit; he may give her a little or a lot, without a specific limit.
