QUESTION: The groom has refused dowry, but the bride’s family insists on gifting items out of love as she’s their only daughter. They ask the groom to buy what he can, and they’ll cover anything missing. If it’s not demanded and given willingly as a gift, it’s allowed for the groom to accept it, as long as there’s no pressure or obligation. Intent matters in Islam.

QUESTION: My husband doesn’t take his financial responsibility. He ignores me, gives me silent treatment and insults me and my parents. I have tried to communicate this but nothing.
