IF A WIFE DOES NUSYUZ (RUN AWAY FROM HER HUSBAND), SHE DOES NOT LOSE HER RIGHTS TO OBTAIN THE SHARED ASSET EARNED DURING THE MARRIAGE
 
According to customary law, even if a wife is nusyuz (denying or running away from her husband), her right to get her share of the shared asset she
received during her marriage is not lost.
 
→ Supreme Court Decision No. 1476 K/Sip/1982, dated 19 July 1983.
