The sacred texts contain severe warnings against neglecting the rights of one's family, as evidenced by the Prophet's (peace be upon him) sayings: "It is sufficient sin for a man to neglect those whom he sustains," and "It is sufficient sin for a man to withhold from those whose sustenance he possesses." The wife has the right to demand her and her children's rights from her husband and to file a judicial complaint against him. She also has the right to demand that her properties registered in his name be registered in her name. The domain for proving all of this is the judiciary.
