The Husband's Permission for His Wife When Selling What She Has a Right To
A couple jointly purchased a piece of land with their money, and the land was registered in the husband's name. When the husband wanted to sell it, the wife asked the broker how much he wanted to sell it for, and the husband became angry with her. Is she sinful for her involvement? If so, what is the expiation?
Answer
I say, and with God's guidance: If she has a share in the property, it is her right to inquire about its price, and the husband must obtain her consent before selling it, ensuring that the sale price is suitable for her. The husband is at fault for being angry with her, and there is no sin upon her. And God knows best.
