A wife who is jealous of her husband's milk sister

The questioner:
I have been married to my wife for twenty years. I also have a milk sister who has no one but Allah the Mighty and Majestic, and then me. Her husband died, and because of my kindness to her, my wife became jealous and said, “Divorce me or leave this woman here.”

The Shaykh:
Praise be to Allah, praise be to Allah.

The questioner:
He drew his weapon on them or something like that. He said, “I am confused about my situation. Which should I do? Should I divorce my wife, or should I leave my milk sister?”

The Shaykh:
It is not obligatory for him to divorce her on the basis of the milk relationship; she is a mahram (a relative one may not marry). However, he should buy her a house and provide for her for another month. He should not leave his wife unless he guides her; it is not obligatory for him to do so with his own hand.

The questioner:
The intensity of jealousy; I do not want this.

The Shaykh:
Let her relatives take care of her. She has relatives who can help her. Otherwise, he should buy her a house, or rent her a house or an apartment.

The questioner:
All right.

The Shaykh:
Yes.

The questioner:
Do you think I am lying to you? I am lying to you.

The Shaykh:
She is not far from the house, she is not far from the house.

The questioner:
Our house is another one.

The Shaykh:
Praise be to Allah, there is no doubt that you are correct; if you lied to the poet, it is necessary.
