The question

Is it permissible for the wife to return money to her father that he spent on her daughter indirectly by saving from the money she receives from her husband for her needs? And is the wife entitled to demand the deferred dower and the value of the قائمة المنقولات (list of movable assets) without a divorce occurring?

The answer

If the father spends on his daughter gratuitously, he has no right to demand maintenance from the husband. However, if the father spends with the intention of claiming maintenance from the husband, then he has that right. The wife should not dispose of her husband’s money except with his permission, but if he gives her maintenance or money, she may dispose of it. The wife has the right to demand her entire prompt dower, including the jewelry and movables, whereas the deferred dower is due upon its appointed time or upon separation by divorce or death.
