Islam emphasizes the rights of a wife to a husband. Islamic law is derived from the teachings of the Holy Prophet (PBUH), the Holy Quran, and Sunnah.in Islam, a husband is responsible for providing, shelter, food, and clothes, and to fulfill all other needs of the life of a wife. In Islam wife’s maintenance is far beyond the financial support. According to Islamic teachings, a husband should provide emotional and spiritual support to the wife along with financial support. A husband should respect her wife and take care of her. Islam acknowledges the loving and nurturing relationship between spouses promoting stability in a family.
In Pakistani law, the legal framework of the Family Courts Act and Muslim Family Law Ordinance ensures the protection of rights of a wife.

However, the obligations of a husband depend on his financial stability and capacity to provide the basic needs.
In Pakistan, the wife’s maintenance law is of significant importance because it provides financial support and security to a woman after a divorce. After divorce, a woman may face economic issues so the wife’s maintenance law ensures that the woman should get financial support and maintenance expenses from her former husband. The amount of maintenance given by the former husband is decided by the standard of living enjoyed during the marriage, the capacity of the husband, and the woman’s needs.
