A woman asked Darul Iftah of Jamia Binoria that whether the income of wife is her personal financial resource or the husband have right in it just like wife has the right to take from husband’s income?
Mufti said that husband has no right on the income of wife and it is the property of wife just like Mahr becomes the property of the wife.
A husband can request her wife during need but it can be no more than a request because you cannot pressurize someone for her personal assets. It has been observed that in our society wife is pressurized and in some cases they were even not consulted before using her personal assets which is not correct.
As discussed previously that the relation of husband and wife is not a 1+1=2 equation. This relation is based on mutual corporation and a wife should cooperate if she thinks the husband is going through some financial problems.
