Abstract

This study deals with the disclosure of the expenses of the wife imprisoned in the Islamic jurisprudence and the Jordanian Personal Status Law, by indicating the nature of the wife's maintenance, her ruling, the reason for her, and her fallacies, and then stating the position of the jurists on the expense of the imprisoned wife. Just as the expense of the imprisoned wife received the attention of the jurists, she also received the attention of the legislator. She was assigned an area of personal status law, because of its importance and influence on the marital relationship.

This study concluded that the wife is not entitled to alimony if she is imprisoned for a reason that is not due to the husband. If she is imprisoned on the basis of a charge from the husband, her imprisonment is because of him.
