If the husband wants to provide financial support to his wife, he can certainly do it. It is not mandatory, unless it is part of the legal separation or divorce agreement.

What things should be given to a divorced woman by her husband?

That depends on the financial state of the husband and of whatever assets the two of you own. If, for example, your husband was unemployed or a student, you likely wouldn't receive alimony. There can also be the case if the couple has children. In that case, whomever takes the kids would receive child support by the spouse. However, this support may also vary according to the financial state of the spouse. In the case of houses, if you have children and are the legal guardian then you can claim the house for the kids. Otherwise it would likely be split between the two of you. It really all comes down to the financial state of the husband, whether or not you have kids and who will take them, and of course, how competent your lawyer is and whether or not your husband will agree to your terms.
