What is the religious ruling regarding the entitlement to the deferred dower: Is it that which was verbally agreed upon, or that which was recorded in the legal contract for a lesser amount?

What is considered is the dowry that was agreed upon, not what was written in the marriage document. Your daughter has the right to receive her entire dowry from her ex-husband, including the deferred portion, unless she agrees to less than that.
