The answer

The pension deducted from the deceased's salary is a right for the heirs, and the wife receives it whether she remarries or not. However, if the pension is a conditional grant from the state, then its conditions must be adhered to.

Regarding the wife's maintenance after the marriage contract and before consummation: 1. If the wife makes herself available to her husband and requests maintenance, then maintenance becomes obligatory for the husband, and she is not permitted to take from her father's salary. 2. If the wife withholds herself, or her guardians prevent her, or if there is no request or offering from either party, then she is not entitled to maintenance from the husband, and she is permitted to take from her father's salary.
