f:300 -    Taking wife's income without her permission
Country : Not mentioned,
Name : Abdullah
Question:     If the wife is earning after marriage, can the husband take money from her.  If no, can he take from her in times of extreme need?
............................................................................
Answer:     Taking care of the wife's needs is the responsibility of the husband, and in the light of the Shariah, the husband does not have any right on the wealth of the wife or on the money, which she earns.  However, if the wife willingly gives her money/wealth to the husband, he may use it.  Doing so when the husband needs it is a very high standard of courtesy and good manners.

And Allah (Subhanahu Wa Ta'ala) knows best.
