What is the ruling if Khul' is contracted for the movable property (*muta'*) found in her house?
General Chapter
Al-Mughni
Book of Khul' (Redemption Divorce)
Primary text
If the house contains movable property, that property, whether small or large, known or unknown, belongs to the husband. If there is no movable property, he is entitled to the least amount that can be called movable property. This is based on the principle that the stated exchange is fulfilled by the least application of the term.
