Are both spouses rewarded for the charity that the husband gives from his wife's money with her consent?
If you authorize your husband to manage your money and give charity from it, you will receive a reward for what he donates from your money, just as he will receive a reward for that charity. The proof of this is that the Prophet, peace and blessings be upon him, said: “If a woman spends from the food of her husband’s house without causing damage, she will have her reward for what she spent, and her husband will have his reward for what he earned, and the steward will have the like thereof. None of their rewards will be diminished in the slightest.” This includes a man giving charity from his wife's money with her permission, as there is no influential difference.
