What is the ruling on agreeing to write a marriage list of requirements that will not be fully fulfilled, with the consent of both parties, to facilitate the marriage and please the parents, and what are the wife's rights upon separation in the event that this list was written? And what is the aspect of prohibition, if any?

The list of movables, according to Egyptian custom for marriages, includes three types:

1. What was purchased with the wife's money or her family's money: This is her property. 2. What was purchased with the husband's money: This falls under the ruling of the prompt dower (mu'ajjal al-mahr), so the wife's ownership of it is established immediately upon the marriage contract. 3. What was agreed upon to be purchased with the husband's money but has not yet been bought: This falls under the ruling of the deferred dower (mu'akhkhar al-mahr).

It has become customary in Egypt for the dower to be of two parts: cash recorded in the marriage certificate, and movable goods recorded in the list of movables. The list includes an inventory of all movables and their value. In case of separation, the wife takes the purchased movables and the value of those not purchased.

This action is permissible as long as it is with the consent of both parties, and the list's value is determined by their agreement, and its ownership belongs to the wife by custom. The Permanent Committee has issued a fatwa permitting its mention in the marriage document.
