What is the legal ruling on a disobedient wife traveling without her husband's permission, and what is the ruling on her deferred dower and expenses after her divorce, given that they have a daughter?
The rights of a divorced woman include the full mahr (dowry), both the immediate and deferred portions, if consummation has occurred. If consummation has not occurred, she is entitled to half of it. The deferred mahr is a debt that must be paid. If the divorce is revocable and she is within her waiting period (), she is entitled to maintenance, housing, and clothing, unless she is disobedient (nashiz), in which case her rights are forfeited until she returns. After the iddah ends, she has no rights. As for a woman divorced irrevocably (bain), she is not entitled to maintenance according to the majority of scholars, unless she is pregnant. The maintenance and housing of a daughter are obligatory upon the father until she marries, provided he is solvent.
