The answer

A husband must treat his wife well and consider her emotional side, and sexual dysfunction does not preclude this. Sexual dysfunction may be a psychological symptom or due to sorcery. Therefore, she should think well of her husband, pray for his recovery, and guide him to seek medical treatment and (Islamic exorcism). Sexual dysfunction is not a reason for annulment of marriage unless it reaches the point of impotence, in which case the husband is given one year to seek treatment. If he is unable to recover, the wife is given the choice to either remain married or separate.
