There is no harm for the spouses in leaving the residence with the husband's uncle and moving to an independent dwelling. There is also no harm for the husband in demanding from his uncle any debts or rights owed to him; however, pardoning them is more meritorious. The husband must maintain ties with his uncle and is not permitted to sever them. Maintaining ties can be achieved through visits and other means.
