Among the purposes of marriage are family stability and living together in kindness. Both spouses should be keen on understanding each other and not giving Satan an opportunity to spread hatred. If a husband abandons his wife, he has committed a wrong; and this abandonment has its legal regulations. It is recommended to supplicate frequently for the betterment of the relationship between the spouses, and to seek the help of wise family members to reconcile and clarify the consequences of divorce.
