Can I do business without investing and still have a separate home with my wife?

Answered as per Hanafi Fiqh by Darulifta-Deoband.com
iam married before 2 years. I have one child. I am with my father in business. Alhamdhulillah business is good. But I don’t get any money from my father before or after marriage. That is the problem. Even after my marriage I asked my mother to give some money every month. but my what is the necessary of money for you separately. So I left it. From the day of my marriage I didnt buy anything for my wife. Every thing my father or my mother will buy it and give it to her. My wife did not like this. My wife wants to go out separately with me to other house. She doesnt like stay with mother or father. My father scolds my wife even my child cries. He wants every one should be in his control. Even I speak any call in my cell phone immediately he will ask who is in line. Once my wife was speaking with her mother, i was performing salah, at that time my father called, line was busy. He got angry again he tried and started to scold me. By that time he said I didnt give you cell phone for your personal use. often he will will use the word if you want to stay here you should stay only on my wish otherwise just get out. But this word irritated my wife and she started to scold me. She wants me to do separate business. I can do separate business? I can go out and stay in separate house with my wife because i cant convince my wife hereafter? And other thing I can do business without investing any amount on commission basis? please reply moulana as early as possible?

Answer

(Fatwa: 1744/1295/D=1431)

The expenses of your wife and children are wajib on you not on your parents. If your parents accept this responsibility happily and you and your wife have no objection, then there is no harm. But when your wife dislikes it you can adopt any other means of livelihood for the expenses of your wife and children. If she finds it difficult to live with your parents, you can arrange separate house for her, but you should not do all these work by making your parents angry, rather you should win their consent with wisdom. Also, always take care of their happiness along with their services and obedience.
