And should the fiancé or the fiancée's family initiate a visit to resolve the dispute?

It is not permissible for a Muslim to abandon his brother for more than three nights, and whoever abandons his brother is deprived of God's forgiveness. It is incumbent upon family and in-laws to reconcile and visit each other, and the best among them is he who initiates it. As for him who forgives and reconciles, his reward is with God. As for the annulment of the marriage contract, it is not within the authority of the wife's family after its completion, because she has become a wife. It is advisable not to inform the family of marital problems, as this only worsens them.
