What is the ruling on leaving one's wife in her apartment to sleep alone—while she desires that—or leaving her with her mother until she gives birth, knowing that the husband is aware she suffers from depression, wets herself, and does not purify herself from impurity, and her family concealed her illness from him?

What has been mentioned about the wife may be due to a psychological or physical illness. The following is advised: Consult specialists, and do not sleep with the wife if she does not wish it or if the husband is harmed by sleeping with her, as there is no sin in the wife waiving her right to spend the night. It is better to leave the wife with her mother to help and guide her. You can also consult the counseling section of Islamweb.
