Answer
Based on official Jordanian legal texts
A child's housing maintenance under Jordanian law is an essential right falling within general child support. Article 187 of the Personal Status Law makes children's maintenance owed by a father of means, and maintenance — as defined in Article 59 — includes housing alongside food, clothing, and medical care.
This connects to Article 179, which addresses the wage for the custodian's housing as owed by the one who owes the child's maintenance, so providing suitable housing for the child is among the obligations of the father or maintenance-payer. The aim is for the housing to be safe and suited to the child's needs.
Housing maintenance — like the other items — is assessed according to the payer's means, whether comfortable or constrained, under Articles 64 and 189, so he is not burdened beyond capacity, and the child is not left without suitable housing where the father is able.
Determining the adequacy of housing and its wage remains within the Sharia Court's competence according to the child's need, the payer's ability, and the facts of each case.
This is a general explanation based on Jordanian Personal Status Law and does not replace advice from a qualified lawyer in a specific dispute.
