Al-Iftā’ on spousal financial independence
The Egyptian Dar Al-Iftaa has confirmed that each of the husband and wife has an independent financial estate. The marriage contract does not, by itself, result in the merging of their assets or grant one party rights over the other's wealth, except in cases governed by Islamic law or mutual agreements between the two parties. The fatwa is based on Qur’anic texts, prophetic sayings, and judicial rulings that affirm each party's capacity to own and manage property independently, with few exceptions such as the dowry, which becomes the exclusive property of the wife. It also clarified that the inheritance system and the Islamic legal fund support the independence of each person's financial estate, and that the Egyptian Court of Cassation has emphasized that financial contracts between spouses are governed by general legal principles, not solely by the marriage contract itself.
