What is the ruling regarding a wife who demands her gold after khulʿ, claiming she did not receive it, and wants an oath to be sworn to that effect, knowing that she says the gold she did receive was compensation for her expenses on the house?

If a wife spends on the household with the intention of recovering the expenses from her husband, then she has the right to reclaim what she spent. However, if she spends as a donation, she has no right to recover it. She will be granted this right after taking an oath, unless she was a volunteer. It is not permissible for a wife to take gold and deny it before the court, unless she has a right to reclaim funds and has no other way to obtain her right except through this action. In such a case, it is permissible according to those who uphold the principle of obtaining one's right through seizing it, provided its conditions are met. Matters involving disputes should be referred to the Sharia (definition) judge.
