Lillah and charity

Wife giving Sadaqah from the husbands wealth without his permission

Q: Please tell me can a woman give Sadqah and khairaat without the permission of her husband from his income? 

Hadith: Narrated Abu Huraira: The Prophet (Sallallahu Alayhi Wasallam) said, "If the wife gives of her husband's property (something in charity) without his permission, he will get half the reward." Book 69, Sahih al-Bukhari 5360

Sadaqah

Q: Should I give money to people selling stuff that I don't need to buy without buying anything from them? 

Decreasing one's sadaqah to save up for hajj

Q: Alhamdulilliah I am employed and in addition to my annual zakaat I make a point of giving away at least 10 percent of my money in additional sadaqah. However I am a bit confused at this point. I would like to start saving more than I currently  in order to get married and go for haj Inshallah. I know that sadaqah does not decrease wealth.

Should I continue to give the same amount as sadaqah or should I decrease a bit in order to increase my savings for these sorts of things.

Accepting funds or donations from Multinational Pharmaceutical Companies to run clinics in poor areas

Q: The Islamic Medical Association runs clinics in poor areas around Durban, where the Govt has no services for these people.  Funds are running out as more and more medicines are needed to help people.  So far no other money except those given as lillah by the muslim community has been used. Can a Muslim organization, in this case the Islamic Medical Association accept funds or donations from Multinational Pharmaceutical Companies to do its work in servicing the medical needs of the indigent population?
