Yes wife has to return the haq mehr if the husband contests the case.. As far as jewelry is concerned it seems to me that you gifted her jewelry like the way people gift in bury. Whatever is gifted under Mohammadan Law is a gift that can not be returned. According to a Hadis, a person that takes back gift is like a dog that spits and eat it. However i think i can show you a way around to this problem. For more do consult me at [email protected]
