Dear brothers and sisters, I would like to know what the right of the wife is in accordance to the property she owns and has bought through her own money (not the money of the husband).
Lets say there was a couple ab (a being the male, b being the female), and b bought a house from the money she earned through her occupation. Few years later, Mr.A's mother asked A to give the house(that Mrs. B bought) to her. Mr.A agreed to her mom without the consent of his wife B.
So now my question is can the wife in this situation say no to her husband giving her house to his mom, and she never even agreed to it in the first place.
Nope, she made it very clear that she had bought the house so she could give it to her children when they got married.
And brother, Alhamdulillah, I thought the same thing too. What astonishes me though is that Mr.A's entire family acts as though they have done nothing wrong. Mr.A's little brother shoved Mr.A's children (literally) out of his parents home (joint family) when they came to visit and literally started cursing at Mrs.B. And were it not for intervention, Mr.A's little brother would have for sure hit Mrs.B. Where has honor and chivalry gone now a days that, forget respecting your elders, now you hit an elder woman and talk despicably to her? And this is a woman who has seen the Prophet (sallAllahu alaihi wa sallam) in her dream. She is going through a lot of trials please pray for her brothers and sisters.
JazakAllahu Khairan

Reason: Edit: Ah, great. Love you, Mr.Anonymous, such a sharp memory you have. lol
in that case the house is totally hers and she should make this clear to her in laws and further tell her husband, he is free to buy a house for his parents
Yes if she doesn't need the house for her family, or anything like that
she shouldn't be obliged to give her wealth to anyone if she doesn't want to regardless of whether she needs it or not, so your lil concept of her being spoiled doesn't go.
Because their family.
yh HIS family...
...desperate for husnul-khitaam...
please make dua that Allah grants me a good end (to my life). please make dua that Allah guides me.

Makes sence, but if she doesn't need the house for anyone else than what's the problem????
I'm not saying that she should be obligated to give her house. I'm asking her the above.
Undoubtedly the free adult person who is of sound mind and discernment is permitted to dispose of his own wealth with no restrictions as long as he is alive, whether he is buying, renting, giving a gift, establishing a waqf (endowment) or any other kind of transaction. There is no dispute among the scholars on this point.
There is also no dispute among the scholars concerning the fact that the husband does not have the right to object to the way his wife handles her wealth in transactions such as buying, renting, etc., if the woman is of sound mind and there is no reason why she should not handle her own money and she is not one of those who may be tricked. (Muraatib al-Ijmaa’ li Ibn Hazm, 162; al-Ijmaa’ fi’l-Fiqh al-Islami, Abu Habeeb, 2/566).
A woman who is adult, of sound mind and sensible has the right to manage her own money and to dispose of it however she wishes, whether that is in return for something or not, such as buying and selling, renting, lending, giving in charity or giving gifts, giving all or part of the money. No one has the right to stop her doing that, and she does not need anyone’s permission, whether she is virgin who has a father, or does nit have a father, or is married with a husband.
la hawlah wa laa quwatta illah billah...i wish men would start acting like men!!! if you care about your families, spend on then yourselves and quit nicking off with wifeys wealth
...desperate for husnul-khitaam...
please make dua that Allah grants me a good end (to my life). please make dua that Allah guides me.
^becuase it is HER'S...she can do whatever she wants with it...
But HER is a Muslim. She can't do whatever she wants with it but she should do what's the best,especially during Ramadhan. It would prevent disputes with her husband and family.
Ah, okay. Well, that's brilliant cause I always loved my FIL's car collection. I'm off to demand it tomorrow. He is family after all, and what's his is mine.

Read properly:
she made it very clear that she had bought the house so she could give it to her children when they got married.
She can give it to the neighbour's dog if she wants, n no one has the right to complain. It's no one's bloody business what she does with her own property.
I'd love to see your reaction if you were forced into the same situation.
if they really cared about preventing disputes, then why don't they take the initiative themselves instead of patronizing and taking others' wealth unlawfully!

You quote the whole post.
neighbou's dog, hmm how about some prostitudes also.

Sisi, your replies do make sence. It's obvious that the sister doesn't have much rights in her household than it's the best for her to agree with her husband. If she doesn't agree with her husband than she should've talked with him then asked.
