Does the husband have the right to dispose of his wife's wealth?

Question:
Does a man have the right to dispose of his wife's wealth, such as gold and jewelry, with her consent or without it?

Answer:
He has no right to dispose of her wealth except with her permission. The husband has no right to dispose of her wealth except with her permission, because she is of sound mind. If she is not of sound mind, then her guardian is the one who disposes of it; her father, or her father's agent. As for the husband, no, he has no right to dispose of it. Her wealth is hers.
As for the hadith: It is a weak hadith, or the meaning is: she has no right to dispose of his wealth. As for her wealth, he does not dispose of her wealth. For this reason, the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him), when he finished the Eid sermon, would go to the women, admonish them, remind them, and order them to give charity. They would give charity, and he did not order them to consult their husbands. He would take the charity from them, and Bilal would accept it. This indicates that they have the right to dispose of their wealth if they are of sound mind, and he has no right to prevent them from doing so, nor does he have the right to dispose of her wealth without her permission.
And in the authentic reports: Maimunah said, "O Messenger of Allah, did you know that I freed so-and-so?" He said: And he did not say to her: "Why did you give charity with her without consulting me?" She said: "I freed her." So he did not say: "Why did you not consult me?" This indicates that she has the right to dispose of her wealth, except that he said: Yes.
