Reminding the questioner sister of her individual responsibility before Allah for her actions. It is not permissible for a wife to withhold her husband's right from him or neglect her home under the pretext of his disobedience, as this does not negate his right. Neglecting the home can lead to the husband's alienation. The best way to deal with the husband is to obey Allah concerning him, fulfill one's duties towards him, and advise him with gentleness. It is also necessary to advise the neighbor and warn her against betrayal if there is any illicit behavior between her and the husband.
