It is not permissible for the wife to insult her husband because he has the phone number of his ex-fiancée. Her searching through his phone is forbidden espionage. The husband erred by keeping the number, as it may arouse suspicions and problems. It is not permissible for the wife to request a divorce unless there is a legitimate Shariah reason.
