What is the way for a wife to regain the trust of her husband, which he lost from the beginning of the marriage due to her lie, and he fears she might steal from him, knowing that he is religious, they have two daughters, and they live in constant quarrels?
Satan strives to demolish the marital relationship; therefore, spouses must block Satan's entry points and take the initiative to reconcile. Lying shakes the trust between spouses, and it is a hideous sin that leads to immorality and is considered a characteristic of hypocrites. The wife must repent from lying and avoid doubtful matters that arouse suspicion. The husband should not harbor ill thoughts about his wife without reason and should find excuses for her. It is recommended to repent to Allah, and for the wife to frankly tell her husband about the distress she feels due to his suspicion, then to take the necessary steps that cultivate trust between them, such as love, honesty, trustworthiness, avoiding doubtful situations, and supplicating frequently for their condition to improve and for love to prevail between them.
