Marital Problems and the Intervention of the Wife’s Family
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
This questioner says: I am married and I have children, praise be to Allah, but I have problems between me and my wife, to the point that I am in conflict with my wife, and her family intervenes and increases the problems. I am patient for the sake of my children, and this makes them more domineering and increases the problems. Therefore, many, many people have advised me to divorce her with one divorce so that she will be obedient and acknowledge the status of marriage. But I want to know, what should I do in a case like this?
Answer:
You must be patient. The woman has what she has, as the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said:Sahih al-Bukhari 5184 And if you try to straighten her, you will break her, and breaking her is her divorce. So you must be patient. If you have no patience, divorce her. Praise be to Allah. Yes.
The presenter:
May Allah reward you.
