If the wife has income from a job that her husband permitted her to have, is she obligated to provide for him due to his financial hardship in exchange for what he permitted her?

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner : Taha: If the wife’s wealth is acquired from work or a job, and the husband permitted her to have it, and he is financially unable to provide, is it said that she is obligated to spend in return for what he permitted her?

The Shaykh : Was it a condition in the marriage contract that he allow her to work?

The questioner : Taha: In both cases?

The Shaykh : Respond

The questioner : Taha: No, it was not a condition?

The Shaykh : If he wishes, he can prevent her, or say: “Give me from the salary, I know.” But if it was a condition in the marriage contract, he must allow her, and he has no right to any of her salary.
