The answer

Satan is keen on corrupting the relationship between spouses, and it is their duty to block Satan's avenues. The wife should seek the reason for her husband's lack of trust and clarify it, apologize for any mistake, and be careful not to do anything her husband dislikes, as long as it is within the bounds of Islamic law. Among the most important things that build trust are: the wife seeking her husband's permission when leaving the house and stating her destination, seeking permission for voluntary acts of worship such as fasting, and not allowing anyone to enter except with his permission, based on the Prophet's (peace be upon him) saying: "It is not permissible for a woman to fast while her husband is present, except with his permission, nor to allow anyone into his house, except with his permission."
