Not attending circles of knowledge because of the wife

Question:
I am keen on attending lessons of knowledge, and I live with my wife in the city of Riyadh. When I go out, she is afraid of the loneliness of sitting alone, and she wants to prevent me. So, should I sit with her, or should I attend the gatherings of knowledge?

Answer:
The closest view—and Allah knows best—is that you sit with her so that she does not feel lonely. You should come at times when you can attend knowledge in the times when she has someone to keep her company, or you go to someone who will keep her company. This is because some women cannot bear it, and your family has a right over you. So, the most apparent and closest view is that you stay with her and keep her company, then you look for another time when there is safety from this matter. Or you attend with her at the time of the lesson you want, having someone to keep her company, then you go, and then you return.
