Is it permissible for the wife to take half of the money deposited with her father, and half of the deferred dowry and the bridal gift, even though her father used the money for a private project, if she requests a divorce before consummation, claiming a lack of feelings towards the husband who works in another country?

If the wife requests a divorce because she does not love her husband, the husband may refuse to divorce her until she forfeits her right to the mahr (dower). However, if he divorces her without her forfeiting any part of her right, she is entitled to half of the agreed-upon mahr (both immediate and deferred). If the dowry (shabka) was part of the mahr, she is entitled to half of it. If the amount paid to the wife's father was part of the agreed-upon mahr, she is entitled to half of it. However, if it was an authorization to purchase an apartment and not part of the specified mahr, the wife has no right to it, and her father guarantees what he profited from trading with it without permission.
