We see that the matter is too trivial to cause a dispute between the spouses. They should understand each other and overlook minor faults. Each of them should be keen on speaking kindly, think well of the other, and interpret their words in the best possible light, for Satan strives to sow discord between spouses, in accordance with the Almighty's saying: "And tell My servants to say that which is best. Indeed, Satan incites [discord] among them. Indeed, Satan is ever, to man, a clear enemy."
