Also the following video which is already included in the above thread will help: https://youtu.be/quodzSxasWE
Wife’s share in her husband’s property is half of of husband’s share in the inheritance of his wife. This is on the same principle of benefit. The husband is RESPONSIBLE to spend from his money to her wife, but not the wife. However, if she spends from her own resources or wealth this is her favour. The law is made on general norms, according to which men spends on their wives, not vice versa. Therefore husband’s share is double of the share of wife. However, if wife has extended her favour in term of her money spending on her husband, the husband can extend his favour by allocating greater share from his wealth for his wife.
