    Bismillah hir-Rahman nir-Rahim !

    (Fatwa: 954/954/M=1432) Mahr is the right of wife and one who owns right can also withdraw it. In this case, if wife withdraws her right of mahr willingly it will be cancelled and you will no longer be asked to pay it off. However, if you still want to give her, you can give it with some other title.
