The wife's dowry is her property and a fixed right upon her husband. She has the right to demand the immediate dowry to perform the Hajj pilgrimage, and he must fulfill her request if he is able, especially if she has no other money and finds suitable companionship. If the husband is in financial difficulty, she should wait for him, and giving charity to him is more befitting.
