Now, after khula, the girl's parents are asking for my jewels which my family presented to her along with my relatives gifts (salami) and I had returned all her jewels to her before khula but now they are saying that the jewels that we given to her should be handed over to them since they feel they are the owner of them now. They decided to give me mahar, but in turn they are asking all my jewels and my relatves gifts (gold) to be presented to her now after khula. So my question is will I have to give my all jewels and gifts (gold) to her or not. Please help me in this matter soon as I am feeling very bad in financial and mind because of khula.
