Does the wife have the right to her husband's money to dispose of as she wishes? And is the husband obligated to help his wife's needy father and mother, knowing that the husband's father is the son of his wife's paternal grandmother's sister, and her maternal grandfather, which makes the wife's father the husband's maternal uncle and her mother his maternal aunt? And is the husband obliged to spend on them?

It is not obligatory for the husband to give his wife a special allowance; rather, what is obligatory is to spend on her in a reasonable manner, sufficient for the couple's situation. Any money the husband donates to his wife or permits her to use becomes her property, and she may dispose of it as she wishes. It is not obligatory for the husband to spend on his wife's parents unless he volunteers to do so.
