Mother in law taking daughter in laws jewellery

Answered by 

Q: Does a mother-in-law have a right over the son’s jewellery given to him from his wife’s parents on their marriage?

And does a wife have any rights over her husbands jewellery that her parents had only given? The mother-in-law has a lot of gold but also takes her daughter-in-laws gifts? Is it Islamically correct?

Bismillaah

A: No

This is not permissible.

And Allah Ta’ala (الله تعالى) knows best.
