Whose testimony is accepted regarding the timing of conversion when it affects the right to maintenance (Nafaqah) after consummation?
Chapter on Marriage of Polytheists
Al-Mughni
Book of Marriage
Primary text
If the wife claims she converted before the husband, and thus no maintenance is due to him, her testimony is accepted because the default status is the obligation of maintenance, and the husband is claiming its nullification.

If the husband claims she converted two months after his conversion, meaning she has no right to maintenance for the second month, and she claims it was only one month, the husband's testimony is accepted because the default status is her non-conversion during the second month.
