The Ruling on a Woman Giving Charity Without Her Husband's Knowledge

Question
Is it permissible for a woman to give charity from her own money without her husband's knowledge?
Answer
I say, and with God's guidance: A woman has the right to manage her own property without her husband's permission as long as it does not affect his reputation, honor, or dignity. However, it may be wise to consult her husband, as it can have a positive impact on their life together, and God knows best.
