Is it permissible to delay the bridal gift for the woman?
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner : Is it permissible to delay the bridal gift, O Shaykh, based on the saying of the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him): "Go to your wife with what is in the Qur'an"?
The Shaykh : And what do you say?
The questioner : ...
The Shaykh : Yes, and who has forbidden it? Who has forbidden it? It is permissible to expedite the bridal gift or part of it. If a specific time is designated, it is bound by that time. If no time is designated, the time is dissolved by separation. For example, if a man marries a woman with a deferred bridal gift of ten thousand riyals due in two years, she receives the bridal gift when the two years are completed. Or if it is two thousand riyals deferred, and he did not say "in two years," we say there is no harm, and the time is dissolved by separation if he separates from her or she separates from him. Yes.
