She asks: Is the husband required to disclose all his secrets to his wife, such as telling her how much money he has, and if he wants to marry another woman, does he have to tell her?
Answer:
The husband shares with his wife what is in the interest of maintaining the marriage and good companionship. As for telling her about all his affairs, there is no need for that, and it may result in harm. So he should not tell her anything except what leads to good companionship and the continuation of the marriage. As for his private secrets, he does not disclose them to his wife, because there is no benefit in that, and there is no need for it. Yes.
