Money is not only the factor when considering who contributed more towards a particular property. The Court will also consider contributions besides money. A wife who stays at home and looks after the children, who does all the cooking and washing contributes also to the matrimonial properties.
The Court consider these kinds of contribution and when making a division of the properties will give the wife a reasonable share even though she may not have put in a single cent into the house(s). These principles of fairness and equality are also adopted by the Syariah Court in the distribution of properties at a divorce.
