Is it permissible for a wife to take money from her husband without his knowledge if he spends it on alcohol and she is in need of it?

It is not permissible for a wife to take from her husband's money except with his permission, unless he falls short in providing for her, in which case she may take what is sufficient for her, in a reasonable manner. A husband's consumption of alcohol does not permit her to take from his money without his permission, except as mentioned. She is obligated to advise him and forbid him from evil.
