Salamun Alaykum,

The answers to the following questions were kindly provided by Hujjatul

Question 1
 
I have heard that one of a wife's duties toward her husband is that she must
protect his belongings, not giving them away or allowing them to be taken or
damaged. Does the husband also have this duty towards his wife's belongings?
Or can he give away or loan her things to someone else without telling her?

Please base answers on rulings of Ayat. Khamenei.

Answer:

The wife has authority over her belongings and nobody including her husband
can interfere with her possessions.

Question 2

I understand that a wife must tell her husband where she is going and when
she will return, to the best of her ability. Shouldn't a husband also tell
his wife where he is going and when he will return, to the best of his
ability? Especially since emergencies sometimes occur at home and he may be
needed to help?
 
Please base answer on rulings of Ayat. Khamenei.
 

Answer: 

The husband has no obligation as to the said problem.
