What is to be done with a Niqabi wife who rejoices when men look at her and exchanges glances with them, yet vehemently denies it, especially when there is an infant child?

The husband must beware of Satan's whisperings that his wife looks at men, and he should interpret her actions as innocent. If he genuinely observes something suspicious from her, he should advise her, remind her of Allah, and explain the danger of letting one's gaze roam freely. Divorce should not be rushed for this reason; rather, it is better to nurture the wife in faith and self-purification, and the husband should be a good role model. Every Muslim man and woman should distance themselves from places of temptation and doubt.
