Re: streedhan

Any gift or dowry given to bride by any side i.e either bride or from grooms side at time of her marriage is considered and included to be her Streedhan, and no one execpt her has right over it. If anyone else besides the bride takes her streedhan in part or whole is bound to return her.

yes you can claim all of your streedhan from your husband.

but if you have deserted your husbands house you might have to prove existence of your jewellery in court if at all he refuses to handover jewellery to you
