The answer

Avoiding and resolving marital problems begins with making a good choice when embarking on marriage, by seeking a person of religious commitment and good character, and being keen on seeking counsel (istishara) and divine guidance (istikhara).

If discord (nushuz) occurs, Islamic law has clarified the means of addressing it for both situations.

What strengthens trust is for each spouse to know the rights of the other and to fulfill them, to overlook minor faults, and not to meticulously track missteps.
