A woman must strive to keep her husband away from evil deeds through legitimate means. It is forbidden for her to abandon him in bed or otherwise, unless she is harmed by him. The woman is advised to be gentle with her husband, pray for his guidance, and involve some righteous people to help reform him. If the husband persists in drinking alcohol and abandoning prayer, it is preferable for the woman to seek a divorce.
