Is it permissible for the mother to demand the return of ownership of the land that was registered in the father's name to facilitate the purchase procedures, and what is the ruling on the father preventing the mother from owning land despite her need and desire to cultivate land from her tribe?
Source: FtawySummary from Ftawy's records · added here Sep 2, 2026
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.
