May a husband take or sell his wife's gold and mahr?

Not without the wife's free consent; the mahr and the wife's jewellery are entirely her property.
The Qur'an commands that the mahr be given to the wife as a gift, and the husband may only enjoy it if she gives it to him willingly. Taking it without permission is wrongful dealing with another's property. If the wife lends her gold, for example to be pawned, it becomes a debt the husband must repay. It is best recorded in writing. See Mahr and Rights of husband & wife.
