How can I win back my husband after repenting from watching pornography and masturbating, especially since he discovered it, which led him to retaliate by watching pornography, communicating with another girl, and changing his treatment of me through beating and abandonment, knowing that I wish to preserve my marriage and family?
The wife is advised to seek Allah's help and strive to reform her husband by reminding him of Allah and instilling in him fear of His punishment, and by urging him to associate with righteous people and attend gatherings of knowledge and remembrance. She should also persist in supplicating for his guidance. The husband is advised to fear Allah, promptly initiate sincere repentance, and treat his wife with kindness. He should be mindful that Allah sees him and reflect on his standing on the Day of Judgment, citing Allah's saying: "O you who have believed, fear Allah. And let every soul look to what it has put forth for tomorrow - and fear Allah. Indeed, Allah is Acquainted with what you do." [Al-Hashr:18], and His saying: "On the Day when every soul will find what it has done of good present [before it] and what it has done of evil, it will wish that between itself and that [evil] was a great distance. And Allah warns you of Himself, and Allah is Kind to [His] servants." [Aal 'Imran:30].
