Charity from the Husband's Money Without His Knowledge
A married woman has a poor sister whose financial situation is very bad. This woman takes some necessities such as food, drink, and clothing for her sister without her husband's knowledge. Is this behavior correct, or should she inform her husband about what she gives to her sister?
Answer
I say, and with God's help: The wife's husband must give explicit or implicit permission, unless the wife is working and gives from her own money, and God knows best.
