He (the Imam) said, ‘It is not lawful for him until she says, ‘I will not honor your turn, follow any of the laws of Allah about you, will not take Ghusl (bath) for you because of sexual intercourse, will not step on your furnishings, will allow to enter your house, without your knowledge, such people whom you dislike. They do not speak to her and she is the one who makes such statements. When she finalizes al-Khul ‘ she becomes stranger and he can take from her assets as much as he can.

He does not have the right to take all that the contesting and denouncing wife gives.’” وثق - Allamah Baqir al-Majlisi (Mirʾāt al-ʿUqūl fī Sharḥ Akhbār Āl al-Rasūl (21/235))
