Advice for the one afflicted with impotence whose wife refuses divorce out of desire for his religion

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success. A man says he was afflicted with impotence, yes, a man was afflicted with impotence, or with impotence, and he wanted to.

The Shaykh:
Impotence. Yes, it is. The 'aynah.

The questioner:
No, weakness, I mean sexual weakness. 'Aynah is from sales, from the issues of sales, yes. He says a man was afflicted with impotence and wanted to divorce his wife, but his wife refused because she desires him for his religion and his righteousness, and he fears fitnah (trial, discord or temptation) for her. His question is: what do you advise him to do?

The Shaykh:
I advise him to keep her as long as she is satisfied and has waived her right, so he keeps her, and praise be to Allah. Yes.
