Question

What happens when the wife is hiding/giving small things to parents/sisters behind the husbands back?

Answer


Wa Alaykum Assalam wa Rahmatullah wa Barakatuhu,

It is permitted to spend the amount that is customarily deemed acceptable of one’s husband’s money—unless he does not permit it. It is haram to spend more than this, or in ways the husband would not be expected to approve.

It is best to actually discuss things with one’s husband before spending the money.
