Should a man divorce his wife whom he no longer desires and considers leaving, while feeling wronged and fearing God, and after having performed ruqyah?

1 min readAlso available in العربية

You should not divorce your wife as long as she treats you kindly, for divorce only occurs after exhausting all stages of reconciliation. The existence of affection and understanding may require patience, overlooking faults, and focusing on the good aspects, as feelings of love are not a condition for marital stability. Know that Satan seeks to cause discord between spouses, so you and your wife must maintain your duties, avoid sins, and regularly perform prescribed remembrance (dhikr) and ruqyah, along with reliance on Allah and frequent supplication.
