Ruling on a father taking his son's wife's gold
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Is it permissible for my father to deduct my wife's jewelry to pay for my wedding expenses?
The Shaykh: He has no right to do that; because her jewelry belongs to her, so her adornments are hers, and your father has no right to take them; because she has acquired ownership of them, whether you gave them to her or she bought them with the mahr. So neither your father nor you have the right to take them, even you; because they are her property, whether she acquired them through the marriage or bought them with the mahr. Yes.
