nafaqa

Nafaqa (arabiska för "ekonomiskt underhåll") är makens skyldighet att stå för hushållskostnaderna/försörjningen, oavsett om det är maken eller makan som har kapital eller inkomst. Denna försörjningsskyldighet kan mannen avstå från att betala om kvinnan anses obstinat (nâshiza), det vill säga om hon är motvillig, trotsig och vägrar komma hem till maken igen. Här måste dock en Islamisk domare, qâdi avgöra.

Support

Useful information: Once the woman has taken up residence with her husband, he must support her in a mode corresponding to the support received by her equals. Support includes such things as food, clothing, shelter, and other necessities. Payment of the dower becomes incumbent on the husband as a result of the marriage contract, but payment of support only becomes incumbent as a result of the contract and the wife's obedience to her husband. If the wife does not obey her husband, he is not obliged to support her.
Here it should be kept in mind that in Islamic society a wife must 'obey' her husband only within the shar'i limits, which is to say that the woman obeys the man on condition that he is obeying God. Should he tell her to do something not sanctioned by the sharia her duty is to follow God, not her husband.
A woman who is in the 'waiting period' after having been divorced, but not irrevocably, by her husband, is entitled to support, since she is still his wife. A woman who is in the waiting period of irrevocable divorce must be supported only if she is pregnant.
