Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Is it permissible for a woman to take from her husband's money without his knowledge to buy her personal needs, given that he does not fulfill her requests for clothing and the like? Please inform us?
Answer:
Yes, there is nothing wrong with her taking from his money without his knowledge for her needs that are obligatory for him to provide, without extravagance or waste. In the two Sahihs, Hind bint 'Utbah (may Allah be pleased with her) said: "O Messenger of Allah, Abu Sufyan—her husband—is a stingy man who does not give me enough maintenance for myself and my children. May I take from his money without his knowledge what is sufficient for me and my children?" The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said:Sahih Muslim 1714a So if she takes from his money without his knowledge what she needs, without extravagance or waste, there is nothing wrong with it.
