The question

Is the wife entitled to request an independent and comfortable dwelling, especially if the current dwelling does not provide her privacy and its space has become restrictive for her, or must she be patient until the husband is able to build his own dwelling in the distant future?

The answer

An independent dwelling is a right of the wife over her husband, and it has specific characteristics. If these characteristics are not met, the wife has the right to demand a dwelling that suits her condition and her husband's means. The husband must provide it, even if by renting or by providing a separate part of the family home. Understanding should be reached wisely, and the wife can seek the help of those who have influence with her husband.
