Does the wife's feeling of deprivation from sexual pleasure in her fifteen-year marriage, and her thoughts of men and masturbation, along with her taking antidepressants and suffering from sleep disturbance, indicate envy or illness, and how can she solve this intractable problem?

The questioner must trust in Allah Almighty and strive in His worship; for this world and all it contains will perish, and Paradise is a recompense for every deprived person. If a servant is afflicted and endures patiently, his rank is elevated. But if he is ungrateful and discontent, wrath will befall him. We advise you to make abundant supplication, maintain ruqyah (definition) (Islamic exorcism) and treatment, avoid dwelling on the matter, beware of forbidden masturbation, and give your husband Fatwa (definition) No. 33144. You can consult specialists regarding treatment and its effect.
