Dar Al-Ifta clarifies wife’s salary spending
The Egyptian Dar al-Ifta affirms that a wife's financial obligations are independent of her husband’s. She has full right to own and manage her own funds and salary without being forced to include her salary in the husband's income. According to a fatwa issued in 1997, the husband has no right to demand that his wife spend her salary on the household, and whatever the wife invests of her money is done with her consent. While Sharia obliges the husband to provide for the wife and children, if the wife voluntarily shares financially in household expenses, it is considered an act of charity. Religion encourages cooperation between spouses, without forcing either to relinquish their rights.
