Spouses should understand and respect each other, and each should fulfill their duties to achieve tranquility and stability, which is the most important objective of marriage. Divorce has severe consequences, especially with children present, and should not be resorted to unless cohabitation becomes impossible and the benefit of divorce outweighs keeping the marriage. A husband is not obligated to divorce his wife at the wish of his parents as long as she is righteous and upright. It is better to overcome disagreements and keep the family united.
