Is the husband entitled to claim the dowry (shabka) after a court-ordered khul' due to harm, given that the court order only covers the mahr?

We advise referring to the court for any dispute involving contention between litigants, especially since the origin of this case was already considered and ruled upon by the court. The ruling regarding the network (jewelry) varies; it may or may not be considered part of the dowry. Both spouses should show generosity towards each other, as this is among the praiseworthy traits, in accordance with the Almighty's saying: "And do not forget the favor among yourselves. Indeed, Allah is Seeing of what you do."
