7. Abu Ali al-Ash’ariy has narrated from Muhammad ibn ‘Abd al-Jabbar or others from ibn Faddal from Ghalib ibn ‘Uthman from Rawh ibn ‘Abd al-Rahim who has said the following:

“This is concerning my question before abu ‘Abd Allah , about the words of Allah, most Majestic, most Glorious, ‘. . . one who suffers from constraint in his sustenance must spend from whatever Allah has granted him.’ (65:7) He (the Imam) said, ‘He must provide her with basic necessities and clothes, otherwise, judgment for separation between them must be issued.’”
