What Does Islam Really Say About Women's Independence (financially)
Salam – This issue is primarily a “marriage counseling” concern, rather than a purely religious one. While Islamic principles can provide guidance on marital relationships, the specific issue of a husband restricting his wife’s movements, despite apparent safety, “is more closely related to communication, trust, and mutual respect within the marriage”. A “marriage counselor” or therapist can help the couple address underlying issues, work through their differences, and develop healthier communication and understanding patterns.
