Is the husband entitled to abstain from spending on his wife if he has another wife on whom he spends, knowing that the first wife is the one who pays the house rent and covers most of the household expenses?

A husband must be just between his wives in terms of lodging and maintenance according to what is customary. He is not obligated to equalize between them in maintenance and clothing if each of them has sufficient provision. A wife is not required to spend on the household, and if she assists her husband, it is a noble deed. The husband must provide suitable housing and customary maintenance for his wife and children. If the husband refuses to spend, the wife has the right to demand it or seek divorce, but patience and compromise are preferable to separation.
