What should one do who has failed in marriage and has not succeeded in making his wife love him, and he did not love her, and his eyes were on another?

1 min readAlso available in العربية

The questioner is advised to fear Allah, overlook his wife's shortcomings, and focus on her good qualities. He must be wary of unfair comparisons with other men's wives. He should show love to his wife and endear himself to her through good treatment and kind words. Not all homes are built on love alone, but rather on Islam and good character.
