The answer

If you divorce your wife before consummation and valid seclusion, she is entitled to half of the named mahr (dowry). This includes half of the gold, if it was part of the mahr. However, if the gold was a gift or a loan, there are further details concerning it. We caution against resorting to divorce without necessity, as it is disliked.
