The question

Is expelling the wife and her father from the home permissible, legally and Islamically, in order to avoid problems and scandals? And must the gold be returned to the wife despite her having sold it willingly? And can she be legally reinstated to the home with her son, especially since the current problems are due to the interference of her family and their desire for the gold and to change the home?

The answer

It is natural for some marital problems to occur, but it is strange not to seek wisdom in solving them and to close the door to Satan, who seeks to separate people. Your act of expelling your wife and her father is inappropriate, and it would have been possible to avoid problems by acting wisely or moving to another place. If the gold belongs to your wife, she has the right to sell it, and you are not allowed to prevent her. You must return its price to her if you took it without her consent. You have the right to ask for her return, and she must obey you.
