The answer

A wife's money is her own, and she has the full right to dispose of it lawfully. It is not permissible for the husband to dominate it or take it except with her full consent. The wife should demand that the properties she buys be registered in her name to document her ownership. If the husband prevents her from doing so, he is a transgressor. She should, however, consider his feelings and consult him. As for the children, they should honor their parents and advise them gently.
